Created:Updated: 20-July-2025
Want to begin your A Level studies right away—or do you need to wait for a new academic year? Here’s how enrolment works for online A Levels, including deadlines, open entry, and planning your exams.
Can I Enrol Anytime?
Yes! With Study from Home, you can start your A Level course at any time of year. There are no fixed terms, semester dates, or waiting lists—just enrol when you’re ready, and begin your studies straight away.
How Does Flexible Enrolment Work?
- Open enrolment 365 days a year—no need to wait for September or January
- Study at your own pace and fit learning around your lifestyle
- Take breaks when needed—ideal for adult learners, parents, and busy students
- Personalised study roadmaps and tutor support from day one
Are There Any Exam Entry Deadlines?
- You can enrol and study anytime, but you’ll need to register for your exams well in advance (usually by January/February for summer exams)
- Exam boards (AQA, Edexcel, OCR) have strict entry deadlines—plan ahead to avoid disappointment
- Your tutor or support team will remind you about exam booking and deadlines
How Long Do I Have to Complete My Course?
- Most students take 1–2 years per A Level, but you can fast-track if you wish
- Take up to 2 years to complete your studies—extensions available if needed
- Your progress and support access remain active throughout your study period
Key Benefits of Flexible Start Dates
- Start when you’re motivated, not just when the school year begins
- Perfect for gap years, career changers, and those juggling other commitments
- No pressure—study at your own pace and set your own deadlines
