When should I apply?We recommend that you apply for your chosen course as early as possible to make sure you secure your spot. Don’t worry if you haven’t 100% made up your mind what it is you want to study; you can always change your mind later.
Can I apply for more than one course?Yes. If you’re accepted for two or more courses please inform us of your final choice as soon as possible.
Will there be an interview?Most interviews will take place in person, but for some courses, this may be a phone interview. This interview will give both you and the lecturer the chance to discuss the course together.
For school leavers, please be aware that your offer will initially be conditional. However, it will become unconditional based on your exam results, which will be confirmed on results day. You will be contacted if any changes need to be made to your course.
What if I have an Education, Health and Care Plan?This isn’t a problem. We have loads of experience supporting people with EHCPs or other learning difficulties. If you have an EHCP (or any learning difficulty for that matter), please let us know as soon as possible by stating it on your application so we can start putting the right support in place.
What if I want to do an Apprenticeship?You may or may not be aware that Apprenticeships are like jobs. Firstly a job needs to exist, and secondly, you might have to go through the interview process – which isn’t always successful right away.
It is always a good idea to apply for a full-time course in your chosen area if you are yet to secure an employer. You get to start developing those crucial skills that employers want whilst the College finds the perfect employer for you.
We have loads of experience when it comes to pairing employers and apprentices, and we can easily transfer you from a course to an Apprenticeship once one has been found.
I've completed my application, what happens next?Upon receipt of your application, a confirmation e-mail will be sent to you by the College. Following this, we will notify if you are required to meet with a member of the teaching team. Should you be successful, you will receive an offer for a place on your chosen course.
For school leavers, please be aware that your offer will initially be conditional. However, it will become unconditional based on your exam results, which will be confirmed on results day.
