Missed yesterday's Open Enrolment session?

We've got another one next Wednesday (9 September) from 4:30pm - 7:00pm for those who haven't made an application yet, have had a change of circumstances or don't know what their next step is and need advice and support.

Students can get guidance from our expert careers advisors and other support areas, speak directly to teachers, find and apply for a course, and enrol on the night, leaving campus ready for the new academic year with their student ID.

Adult learners are welcome too for our Adult Maths & English courses.

Please note: Places are limited and some courses may already be full. Where a course is unavailable, we’ll help you explore suitable alternatives or discuss waiting list options.

Please attend Open Enrolment at the campus that runs the course you are interested in.
