Part-time Enrolments 2010 part-time application form

You can enrol on your chosen Part-time Course using one of the following methods:

  • Enrol in person at any College Campus during office hours
  • Enrol by phone during office hours: 028 7127 6000
  • Complete the ENROLMENT FORM & post to the College (with the appropriate fee)

How to Enrol

You must be over compulsory school leaving age – 16 years of age on or before 1 July in year of entry.  You should complete an enrolment form and submit it to the College, either in person or by post, along with the correct fee. If you are employed and your employer has agreed to pay the fee, evidence of this must be shown at enrolment. Suitable evidence includes a signed letter from your employer or their signature and company stamp on the back of the enrolment form. Your place will only be secure when the fee has been paid. 

Some courses require an interview before enrolment can be completed.  For these courses, please complete the enrolment form and return to College, without the fees.  You will be invited for interview, and if successful, payment of fees will be required to finally secure your place.

On enrolment you will be given a receipt which will show the amount paid, the start date and location of your course. The College will endeavour to run all courses as advertised. However, we reserve the right to cancel courses which do not attract sufficient numbers. In this case students who have enrolled will be entitled to a full refund.
