Step 4: Attend an interview

You will receive an email with the date and place of your interview. The interview is not a test with a pass or fail outcome; it’s an opportunity for us to have a friendly chat about the course you have applied to.

After you have made your application, why not attend an open day?

Open days are a great opportunity to find out more about college life, meet the teachers, ask questions, and see our facilities. Find out what to expect from an open day and how to prepare here.

How to apply

The process of applying to our college is as follows:

  1. Find the course you’d like to study using the online course search. Choose a course and click ‘Read More’ – you’ll be taken to a page with more information on the course you’ve chosen. You can add as many courses as you want to apply for by repeating this step. Please note: for A Levels, you will need to choose 3 courses at the same centre (either Sixth Form College or King’s Cross).
  2. When you’ve finished adding, click the ‘Apply Now’ button on your basket page and follow the instructions.
  3. If you’ve already applied to study at one of our courses you won’t need to complete the full process again, you’ll be able to log in with your existing details.
  4. If you haven’t already applied, you’ll be taken to our registration form, where you can complete your application – this will also create an account where you’ll be able to track the status of your application.
  5. Once you’ve applied, find a suitable interview slot and book an interview – we will then offer you a place on your chosen course or a suitable alternative.

Sometimes your offer will be subject to evidence of your exam results, receipt of a good reference and any other relevant entry criteria. 

Once you have received an offer and accepted it, we will invite you to enrol with us. Enrolment will happen in July and August and we will contact you with a date and time.

If you’re looking to apply for courses at more than one of our centres, you can use the same login details – simply come back to the course search and click ‘Read More’ on a different course. Our applicant portal works across all of our centres.

General FAQs

Do I need to attend an interview?

Once you have applied, we will get back to you with further information and interview date. If you cannot attend your interview please call us as soon as possible. If you are successful at the interview you will be offered a place at the college, subject to evidence of your exam results, receipt of a good reference and any other relevant entry criteria.

Once you have received an offer and accepted it, we will invite you in for enrolment. For courses starting in September 2025, enrolment information will be sent out in July/August 2025.

Not sure what course is for you or what our courses mean?

We have a variety of courses: A Levels, T Levels, Technical Courses, free short courses, and higher education.

When should I complete my application?

We accept applications all year round – but the sooner you get your application in, the sooner we can invite you in for an interview. If you apply during the summer before your course starts, we will invite you into enrolment and interview you and enrol you at the same time.

Higher education

If you are applying for a higher education course such as an HNC, HND, Foundation Degree or Bachelor of Arts/Science (BA/BSc), you can apply via UCAS or directly to the college.

Apply via UCAS

If you are applying for more than one higher education course, or more than one provider (such as multiple universities), you should apply online through UCAS using the button on the course page. To apply through UCAS for 2020 entry, you will be required to pay £13 for one choice and £24 for more than one choice.

Apply directly

If you are applying for just one higher education course, or are looking to study part-time, please use our online application system to apply – simply follow the steps in ‘How to apply’.

We are currently unable to accept applications for Electrical & Electronic Engineering and Biomedical Engineering – Foundation Year (City University London) and Optometry – Initial Year for Extended Degree in Science (University of Hertfordshire). For these courses, please apply via UCAS.

International students

If you are applying from outside of the UK/EU/EEA or Switzerland, you can apply directly to us online. Once you have applied, we will ask you for:

  • A copy of your passport (and visa if you are in the UK already)
  • IELTS (Academic) for UKVI Test Report (if you have already sat the test)
  • Photocopies of other relevant qualifications

If you have existing qualifications from a country outside the UK and you are not sure which course or level is right for you please contact our international office. We can check your certificates and recommend the most appropriate level and qualification for you.

If you require a Student Route Visa (previously known as Tier 4 General Student Visa) or Short Term Study Visa in order to study with us, we will assess your suitability to apply for a visa during the application process. As part of this assessment, we may ask for further information about your immigration history and will carry out an interview with you. If you are overseas at the time of application this interview will take place online.
