How to Apply for Your Higher Education Course
Once you’ve decided which course you’d like to study, applying is easy.
Need some course advice?
You’ll be able to come in to meet one of the subject tutors who’ll give you more details about your course and answer any questions you have.
Enrolling on your course
Enrolment and induction is usually in early September. We’ll send you a letter closer to the time to let you know exactly which date you’ll need to come in, and what you’ll need to bring with you. While you’re here you can find out more from the people who’ll be teaching you, meet others on your course and start getting familiar with the college campus. You should expect to be in college for up to two days.
*Please note that when applying for University of Worcester or Aberystwyth University courses the UCAS application route must be used.
Comfortable in comp, Martyn opted to stay on at sixth form so he could stick with his friends. But having failed his A Levels he decided to do a Level 3 vocational course at Coleg Gwent and is now looking forward to his final year at uni.
“I wish I’d gone to college straight after my GCSEs so I hadn’t effectively wasted two years but I didn’t know you could get into uni without A Levels,” says Martin, from Cwmbran. “The business course, the work experience and enthusiasm to succeed has encouraged me to believe in myself and made me driven to get a job in marketing.”
Martyn’s view of learning has completely changed since he went to college; he’s realised that in the right environment, with the right support and the right teaching, he can achieve more than he’d believed he could.
