Once you’ve decided that Exeter College is the right place for you and you know which course(s) you’d like to study, it’s time to submit your application.
You can apply online directly and receive an immediate acknowledgement of your application. You can also download and complete a form before returning it to the college to look over.
Applying early means you’re more likely to get an early interview and secure your place at Exeter College before you focus on your exams.
Once you have applied we will invite you for an interview to discuss your chosen course(s) or Apprenticeship and discuss any additional support you may require. Your interview isn’t anything to stress about and will provide you with a chance to go over any questions you might have regarding your application.
After your interview you will be offered a conditional place at college which could depend on your GCSE or other exam results, or whether you find an employer if you’re looking for an Apprenticeship.
If you change your mind about your course choices following interview then don’t worry. You can make changes by emailing info@exe-coll.ac.uk or talk to our College Advice Team for guidance on 01392 400600 or cat@exe-coll.ac.uk.
Remember to apply as soon as possible to ensure you get an early interview and start your journey to studying with us.
