How to Apply 16-18

Applying to study at The Manchester College is really easy. Just follow these simple steps, and you’ll be on the journey to success in no time at all.

  • Find your course & apply online

    When you’ve found the perfect course you want to study, you can apply directly online from the course page. If you’re still looking for options, remember you can search via your passions, preferred subject area, or course type.

    If you need help with any part of your application process, our course enquiry team will be more than happy to help you with queries, questions and other formats of the application form.

    Once we’ve received your application, we’ll aim to send you confirmation within 48 hours. If you haven’t heard from us after 7 days, it’s best to get in touch.

  • Attend an interview

    After we’ve got your application, we’ll then invite you down to meet with our tutors and have a chat about your career goals and future plans. This will usually be at the campus where you’ve applied to study.

    It’s just a great way for us to get to know you and make sure you’re on the right course for what you want to do in the future. It helps us both to check you’ll be happy on your chosen course and enjoy your time with us.

    Visiting also gives you a chance to explore the campus and learn more about life as a student, if you haven’t already.

    If you're applying to start in September 2019 and your application is received before 8th March you'll be invited to an interview on: 

    • Tuesday 2nd April 2019 - Harpurhey, Northenden, Wythenshawe
    • Thursday 4th April 2019 - Nicholls, Openshaw, Shena Simon, Welcomb Street

    If you're applying to start in September 2019 and your application is received before 3rd May you'll be invited to an interview on:

    • Tuesday 21st May 2019 - Harpurhey, Northenden, Wythenshawe
    • Thursday 23rd May 2019 - Nicholls, Openshaw, Shena Simon, Welcomb Street

  • Check your key skills

    After your interview, we’ll ask you to take 2 or 3 short tests on Maths, English and ICT. They’re more like quizzes, and they are absolutely nothing to worry about.

    They’re taken on the computer, and are just another way for us to get to know you and understand your current skill levels. It helps us to make sure you have the best possible support when you study with us.

    You’ll get full, easy-to-follow instructions and plenty of time to answer the questions, so there’s no need to panic! We’ll be on hand to offer additional help if you need it too.

  • Receiving a conditional offer

    Once we agree that the course you’ve chosen is the right one for you, we’ll send you a conditional offer.

    This just means that you’ve got a place on the course with us if you get the grades we’ve asked for. Once you do, you’ll all set for enrolment.

  • Getting the right course for you

    After meeting with one of our tutors, you may already have changed your mind about the course you want to study. That’s not a problem.

    If we don’t think you’ll enjoy your original chosen course, we’ll work together and help you find one that you’ll find interesting and will help you reach your goals.
