Interviews
We think you’re great and want to know more.
Once we have reviewed your application, we will invite you in for an interview to find out more about you and see if your chosen course is the right fit for you. It’s also a chance for you to find out more about the course, the people, and the place, as well as getting to showcase a bit more about yourself and your aspirations for the future.
What can I expect from my interview?
Interviews can be a little nerve-wracking, especially if you haven’t experienced many before. This interview will give us a chance to support you with your application, answer any questions you may have and assist you in making an informed decision about your future. It's also an opportunity for you to speak with teachers to find out more about the college.

10 ways to make the best impression at your college interview
College interviews, whether face-to face, over the phone or via video, are not about catching you out or making you question your ambitions. They are focused around what you would like to study, why you chose this career path and more importantly guiding you to the right course to help you achieve your goals.
