Applying to study a full-time course at the Sussex Coast College takes five easy steps:

STEP 1: Decide what course you want to study. You can get advice from either your school careers advisor (if you are still at school) or you can book an appointment with one of our qualified careers advisors.

STEP 2: Come along to one of our Open Days to find out more. This will also give you the opportunity to meet the tutors and current learners and discover more about the excellent facilities available at all of our sites.

STEP 3: Apply using our online application form by choosing from the list of subject areas and courses. Add the course to your basket and complete the online application form. This will get sent directly to our Student Services team who will contact you and arrange a convenient time for you to enrol or you can download an application form here. Send in your form either in person or by post to Student Central who will then contact you to arrange a convenient time for you to enrol.

STEP 4: As soon as we receive your application, you will be given an interview date and time. The interview will be with a tutor from the area you are interested in, and don't worry; you can even bring your parents or guardians if you want to! At the end of the interview you may be offered a place on your chosen course. If you confirm that you wish to accept the offer then it will be held for you and not offered to anyone else, subject to you fulfilling the requirements.

STEP 5: Enrol on your course late August/early September. The enrolment dates vary from year to year and you will be told your enrolment date well in advance. If you are offered a conditional place (based upon gaining certain grades) and you then find your actual grades are lower than expected, or possibly higher, you should discuss your options at enrolment. In some circumstances it may still be possible for you to study your chosen course, or it may be that another course would be more beneficial to you.
