Your Application Journey
Apply Now!
We have a number of Open Events planned and look forward to being able to welcome you back to the College. Please click here for details on our events and to secure your tickets.
If you are unable to attend, we have also put together course specific information for you to watch and you can also experience the college via our virtual tour. You can also read a full copy of our prospectus here.
We hope that this will all provide you with enough information to make an initial application and as an increasingly popular and over-subscribed Sixth Form College, we strongly recommend that prospective students complete the on-line application as soon as possible in the Autumn Term and certainly by December at the latest so that they can secure their one-to-one interview.
These interviews will provide an opportunity for the applicant and a parent or responsible adult to discuss their choices and ask questions with a member of the College’s academic staff.
For those young people who apply by December, they will receive an invitation to an interview on a first-come, first-served basis between November and January.
