Do you think exit career opportunities for a SA1 with a degree vs a SA1 who took diploma route will be the same? I don’t know, but I have some doubts over this.

This conversation only works with the benefit of hindsight, as someone who went Poly to Uni to Big 4, and now seeing juniors from Poly who went to work straight become my senior instead.
I see in some mid tier firms, more than a handful of their audit partners or directors have only a diploma. Not a bad track for a diploma holder since in most other professional services, it's near impossible to rise to partner level without a degree.
