Applications for places on full-time courses commencing in September 2010 will open on 1 November 2009. The first interviews are likely to be held in December 2009 and then regularly during January - August 2010. You are advised to apply early. If you are a year 11 pupil at one of the partner schools you should speak to your Head of Year 11, Careers Adviser or class teacher about the process the school will use to manage your application to the college.  Most partner schools send us applications in bulk and we then arrange interviews in school during February/March each year.

 

Interviews

Full-time interviews take place from January 2010 onwards. Your interview time will be confirmed in writing to you. You may be asked to bring items with you. These include art work (for Art & Design courses), school reports, examination results or records of achievement (for all courses) with you. If you are under 18 years your parent/carer/guardian is welcome to join you for interview. Full details of the application and interview process can be found in our leaflets:

 

Full time application forms can be found in the back of our full-time prospectus or by contacting our full-time admissions team. You can also apply online here. The prospectus outlines course entry requirements and course content as well as progressions opportunities.
