How to enrol
Our campuses will close on Friday 11 December to all students and visitors. Students can continue to enrol online or request interviews/information until 12pm on Friday 18 December.
From Saturday 19 December, enrolment and interview requests will remain open online, but you will not hear back from us until we return to campus on Monday 4 January 2021.
Need to arrange a payment plan or arrange invoicing? There are a number of bookable sessions for students requiring this at our Tycoch Campus. Just book onto payment session once you have received your unique link email confirmation. Please do not attend if you haven't booked a timeslot.
If you cannot book online, you can still book a time slot by calling 01792 284005 during normal office hours (please note that face to face time slots will not be available on campus from 14-18 December).
Our payment plans are 50% of the course fee at enrolment, followed by two further instalments. Instalments are available for courses over £100.
Due to Covid-19 and the associated guidelines, students can expect a blended learning approach this year. This may mean that teaching will be a combination of traditional classroom methods and online delivery.
We would like to thank you for your patience this year as we worked to finalise our part time provision for the coming year.
Don’t forget, the College also offers ongoing employability and career support available through our Better Jobs, Better Futures team.
