What is the average class size at College?

There are usually about 18 or 19 students in each class, although some may be slightly smaller or larger.

How does the College allocate places?

Applications will be processed in line with our Admissions policy.  Offers are made to applicants following a successful Course Advice Session, where applicants discuss their subject choices with a Course Adviser.  An offer of a place to join us on your provisional study programme is made subject to you meeting the College's entry requirements and the entry requirements for the individual courses you wish to study. Our Admissions policy can be found here.

I would like to discuss my choice of courses with someone, how can I do that?

It is our intention that all applicants will be invited by the College to book an online Course Advice Session, which take place from November - April. Should the College be oversubscribed, only those applicants which progress will be invited to attend a Course Advice Session.

During the Course Advice Session, applicants will have a one-to-one discussion with an adviser to discuss subjects of interest, and chosen courses will be confirmed.

Can I still enrol on a course, even if I do not achieve the recommended GCSE grades?

We try to be flexible and treat everyone as an individual but our experience suggests that certain GCSE grades are usually needed if you are to succeed at A Level/BTEC Level 3, so you will need to convince us that you have a good chance of success even though you might have achieved a lower grade.

If I am currently studying overseas can I apply to join the College?

If you are a British Citizen but you have studied overseas we will be in touch with you directly. If are not taking GCSE’s or IGCSE’s we will ask you to apply for a statement of comparability through . This tells us if your grades are equivalent to our GCSE entry requirements.

If you have lived overseas for 3 or more years but have British citizenship, we will also ask to see a copy of your passport for our records when you enrol.

If you do not have British Citizenship but you are here as a dependent and have residency for the duration of your studies, we will ask to see your passport and details of your residency at enrolment.

Please contact admissions@godalming.ac.uk  if you wish to discuss further. 

What are BTECs and can I get into university with these?

BTEC courses are vocationally focused providing you with skills that will help you gain employment.  They are graded Pass, Merit, Distinction and Distinction* and you are awarded UCAS points depending on the grade achieved, exactly like A Levels. Nearly all universities welcome BTECs as they do all other Level 3 qualifications.

Is there a dress code?

We do not have a dress code at 91精品视频 as we prefer you to be comfortable in the clothes that you would normally wear.  However, your clothes should be appropriate to the environment so that all members of the College community can concentrate on their learning.

Do I need my own computer/device?

We have some general guidance about the resources that students need for their College studies. There is a help-sheet below with some useful information.

For the Computing and BTEC courses, there is no particular requirement – although the Computing course uses PC software on Windows 10, so it might be easier to complete work on a PC, rather than an Apple Mac.
