Ready When You Are

We've tried to make applying for your course online as easy as possible.  And our step by step guide tells you what to expect during your application and after a successful offer.

Step 1- Start your online application.

It’s free to apply and you have 28 days to complete your application so don’t worry if you don’t have everything to hand right now.

Step 2 - Submit your online application.

Provide as much detail as you can and we will send you an email acknowledging receipt of your application.

Step 3 - Wait for a response.

Our Online Learning Advisors will review your application and contact you within 1 working week. If your application is successful, we will make you an ‘unconditional' offer. If we still need some additional information from you (eg evidence of your qualifications and experience including certificates and references) we may make you a conditional offer. If your application is unsuccessful on this occasion, we will email you to let you know.

Step 4 - Time to enrol

We’ll ask you to enrol onto your course about 4 – 6 weeks before the start of term.  For example, if you apply to start your course in September enrolment will open approximately mid-August.

Step 5 - ... and pay

You, or your sponsor, will need to pay when you enrol.  See details of our payment plans and notes for sponsors for easy ways to pay.
