United Kingdom
In the United Kingdom, the degree of bachelor is the most common type of "undergraduate degree", although some master's degrees can be undertaken immediately after finishing secondary education, however these courses are extended versions of bachelors degree programs, taking an additional year to complete. Most bachelors degrees take three years to complete, with some notable exceptions such as Medicine taking five years. Often students can initially enroll in a 4 year program then leave after three years and be awarded a bachelors degree.
