How to apply

1. Apply online or by post

Submitting an application is your chance to tell us about yourself, the course you’re interested in and the qualifications you’ve already achieved.

ONLINE
find the course you are interested in and click the ‘Apply’ button

BY POST
complete the paper application form (found in the back of the prospectus) and return it to any City of Portsmouth College campus.

2. Attend an interview

Once you've sent us your application, you will be emailed details of an interview with the course teacher or tutor. This will be your chance to discuss your chosen course choice/s and ask any questions you may have about studying at City of Portsmouth College. We can also make sure that you have made an informed choice about your future study plans to ensure you are on the right track to achieving your career goals. You may initially have a discussion with our learning support team if required. These interviews will enable us to put together a programme of study that’s right for you.

3. Enrol

Before starting your programme of study you’ll need to come into the College and formally enrol. If you’re still at school, this will normally happen in the summer after you‘ve received your exam results. However, we will send you instructions nearer the time making it clear when you should come in to complete this. Please remember that when you come to enrol, you’ll need to show us your exam results and passport or birth certificate – please bring them with you. Once you’ve enrolled, you’re ready to begin your journey with us!
