Frequently Asked Questions
Once you have applied and received an invitation to enrol, you must attend college in person on your allocated enrolment date and time. Enrolment cannot be completed by someone else on your behalf.
During enrolment, our staff will check your personal details, qualifications, residency status, and any funding or fee information. You will also speak to the relevant curriculum team to confirm that the course is suitable for you. Please bring all required documents with you, including proof of ID, your GCSE results or other qualification certificates, and proof of your status in the UK or a valid share code, if required.
If you applied during the summer and have not received an enrolment email, please check our website for the latest enrolment dates and times, and attend college during the published enrolment sessions. We recommend submitting an application before coming into college, as this will help speed up the enrolment process.
Before you leave college on your enrolment day, please make sure you have received your Learning Agreement as proof of enrolment, as well as your new student ID card.
Your induction information and timetable will be sent to you by email after enrolment.
Please bring the following documents with you to enrolment:
- Proof of identity, such as a passport, birth certificate, driving licence or national identity card.
- Proof of your qualifications, including GCSE results slips, certificates or any other relevant qualification evidence.
- Proof of your status in the UK, or a valid share code, as we are required to check your residency status as part of the enrolment process.
- Your National Insurance number, if you have one.
- Evidence of any benefits, income or funding support, if this applies to you.
- If you are aged 16–18, please provide your parent/carer’s contact details, including their name, phone number and email address.
If you are not a British or Irish national, please bring your passport, travel document or Application Registration Card, as well as evidence of your immigration status. In most cases, this should include an eVisa share code.
Don’t worry, we’re here to support you. Please still visit us during enrolment to discuss your options and we will help you find the best next step for your future.
Please check your junk or spam folder first, as enrolment emails can sometimes be filtered there.
If you applied during the summer period and have not received an enrolment email, please check our website for enrolment dates and times, and come into college during the published enrolment sessions.
If you are still unsure, please contact our Admissions Team so we can check your application and confirm the next steps. When contacting us, please include your full name, date of birth, student reference number if you have one, and the course you applied for.
Don’t worry. Come and speak to us during enrolment and our team will help you choose a course and complete your application.
This will depend on the course you have applied for, the number of available places, and whether other applicants accept or decline their offers.
If a place becomes available, we will contact applicants from the waiting list. Please make sure your contact details are up to date and check your emails, including your junk or spam folder, regularly.
Please note that being on a waiting list does not guarantee a place, as courses can fill quickly and availability may change throughout enrolment.
Yes. After GCSE Results Day in August, you can attend Open Enrolment at either our Paddington Green Campus or Willesden Campus, provided you meet the minimum entry requirements for your chosen course.
Please note that not all courses require an interview. If you have your GCSE results or any other qualification certificates, please bring them with you, as this will help us assess your eligibility and advise you on the most suitable course.
Existing applicants are prioritised before new or re-applications, and places on popular courses may fill quickly. We therefore recommend attending as early as possible during the published enrolment period.
No. You must complete your enrolment before you can start your course.
Enrolment confirms your place at the college and allows us to check your details, qualifications, residency status and any funding or fee information. If you do not complete enrolment, you will not be able to attend classes.
If, for any reason, you are unable to attend enrolment, please contact our Admissions Team. They may be able to arrange a meeting with the curriculum team at a later stage; however, this will depend on whether places are still available.
Please check our website for the correct enrolment dates and times, and make sure you come into college during the published enrolment sessions.
