Enrol Now

Everyone at The Manchester College has been working hard to ensure that we make your enrolment experience as simple and as easy as possible whilst keeping both you and our staff as safe as possible.

How to enrol

    For any courses starting in January or early 2021 please apply online or enquire and our dedicated enrolment team will be in touch to help you complete your enrolment and give you further information about starting your course.

    If you've applied to start your course in January, we'll be in contact to enrol you during W/C Monday 11 January

    Courses starting in 2021

    Please note, due to the national lockdown, courses will be delivered online until further notice with a blended learning programme due to run once face-to-face delivery can resume.

    • Everyone at the College has been working hard to ensure that when your course starts you will receive a great college experience in an environment that is welcoming and puts your health and safety first.

      To achieve this, we are making some alterations to our campuses that will make it possible to maintain social distancing and some changes to the College timetable, including staggered start times, to ensure the number of people on campus at any one time is kept to a safe level.

      In addition to this, from September we will be offering a blended approach to your studies. This will see you attend campus for parts of your timetable while other parts of your course will be delivered by a tutor online. Once you have enrolled, you will receive your timetable.

      Don’t worry, we know there is quite a lot to take in - once you have enrolled, we will be sharing the key messages with you over the coming weeks. So, whilst things may look and feel slightly different, the excellent teaching, learning and support will remain the same.

    • If you've applied to study with us then we are now ready for you to start your enrolment.

      Our dedicated enrolment team will be in touch to help you complete your enrolment and give you further information about starting your course.

    • If you haven’t previously completed an application via our Application portal (appy.tmc.ac.uk), then don’t worry, you can still do so.

      If you are interested in studying with us in January or early 2021, then please visit our application portal and we will process your application in the usual way and be in contact to enrol you over the phone. 

      If you would like to speak to someone about a course then please phone 03333 222 444. 

    • If you are a continuing student you will have completed your progression interview and we now require you to complete the final stage of your enrolment, if you haven’t already done so.

    • Please remember that whilst it won’t be as easy to drop in and see us on campus at the moment, our team are still here to provide all the answers and support you need.
