If your application is successful, you will be invited along to the College for a short, informal interview (including an audition for Performance students) where we can discuss your application and finance options. You will also receive a tour of our entire campus and have any questions you may have,answered by a senior member of the lecturing team.
The interview stage isn’t just for us to get to know about you! It also provides you with the opportunity to find out more about the course and ensure you have chosen the best option for your needs and abilities.
If you are successful at this stage, you will then receive a formal offer of a place on your chosen course. This will be either an unconditional or a conditional offer.
An unconditional offer means that you fulfil the entry requirements and have been accepted on to the course. A conditional offer means that if you achieve certain qualifications and/or examination grades you will secure your place on the course.
When a student has been issued with an unconditional offer, they will receive an email with enrolment instructions. This will include a link to complete the enrolment form, information of what ID is required and links to complete direct debit mandates (SAAS funded and Non SAAS funded). Students are given 2 weeks to complete this process in order to enrol in a smooth and timely manner. Student Services will send out reminders for any enrolment documents outstanding.
If the College is unable to offer you a place on the course of your choice we will normally be able to advise you of an alternative course or level of study.
If you decide to withdraw your application at any time it is important that you inform Student Services at the College immediately. This will enable us to offer the place being held for you to another applicant.
Remember, if at any point you need assistance or information contact our friendly Student Services department who will be more than happy to help you.
