Apply for an advanced, Level 3 or higher course


Applications

You will need to complete the application form, then post, email or fax to us. We will also require copies of examination certificates and a personal statement in your own handwriting detailing why you have chosen the particular course and what work/employment experience you have relevant to the course you have chosen (if any) and what you hope to gain from the course. You will be given a student reference number which should be used in all correspondence. Please enclose photocopies of any relevant pages in your passport (showing personal details, visas and entry stamps, as applicable).


Administration fee

A non-refundable administration fee of £150 should be included with your application before the processing of your application can begin.


Offer

Your application will go to the department to which you are applying and upon their decision we may then be able to offer you a place. We will write to explain any conditions of the offer. You will need to complete and return the Notice of Acceptance card and return it to us within two weeks of receipt of your acceptance email. College tuition fees are expected to be paid in September when the course starts unless a visa is required.


Visa

If you require Student Visa, a Confirmation of Acceptance for Students (CAS) is required, this can be requested when full course fees have been paid and cleared through the College’s account. Please note that it may take 1 week for the college to complete a Confirmation of Acceptance for Students (CAS).
