HOW TO APPLY

We consider applications from all suitable students, provided we have an appropriate course for them. We use criteria set out in our Admissions Policy when making offers, which mainly favours local applicants and those from our partner schools. Due to the large numbers of students applying, we are no longer able to offer an interview to every applicant. We will concentrate in the first instance on those applicants who best fit the entry criteria as set out in our Admissions Policy.
