What our students say...

Guna BunduleThe main value of the Faculty is its people – the tutors and the staff, who have been most supportive and inspiring. For me it is a great honour to be among the Faculty's Diploma Holders. The seven years have passed so quickly because the study process has been intense and rewarding through all the 9 modules.

Eric FischmannI owe my potential and insights to the methodical and rigorous approach of my tutors. Their true benevolence has helped me draw out enough confidence to delineate proper boundaries and express values now ripe to unfold.
Eric FischmannIntermediate Exam Success

I tried to learn astrology through books and websites for about a year with no clear progress. With that in mind, I researched the astrological schools that provide correspondence courses as I learn best on my own and at my own time. Based on my research, I found that the Faculty is head and shoulders over other schools.

Have you checked the expiry date of your module credits?

Remember that module credits expire after 6 years unless you validate them by passing the relevant exam at that level. In other words, if you have obtained all Foundation Course module credits, you will need to pass the Certificate Interpretation Exam within six years of completing Module Three
in order to validate these credits. The same system of validation applies to the intermediate and advanced levels.

If you have questions about the validation of your credits please contact Glòria Roca, Head of Exams, at exams@astrology.org.uk.
