What happens next?
Once your application has been received it will be reviewed and if successful you will receive a Provisional Offer of a place at KE6. If we need any further information to add to your application or need to discuss your application further before an offer can be made, we will contact you by email.
Please be aware that a provisional offer is on condition that subject specific entry requirements are achieved and a guidance meeting is attended. If you do not attend 2 issued appointments without explanation your application will be withdrawn regardless of any previous offer made.
Guidance meetings will be issued as a telephone appointment with the option to change to face-to-face if that is your preference. If you would prefer a face-to-face appointment, please follow the instructions in the email to arrange this. Meeting appointments are issued approximately 1 week prior to the date, so please don’t worry if there is a delay hearing from us after receiving your provisional offer, we arrange meetings from February to May.
The Guidance Meeting is quite informal but it is important to be well prepared for it. Please make sure you view our website, read the detail for the courses you are applying for and check the entry requirements.
This meeting is the chance for us to find out more about you and for you to ask us any questions so make a note of anything you may like to ask before you attend – you may forget on the day!
Should the meeting be on the college site and you require additional support to attend your meeting, eg mobility restrictions, etc, please contact Sharon Berrill at sharon.berrill@ke6n.ac.uk
