Interviews
Your interview is not an exam or a personality test! We use it to get to know you and help you choose the right course to suit your interest and ability. We will usually write to you with an interview date.

If possible, please bring your Record of Achievement/ progress file to the interview, even if it's not complete. It is a valuable document and tells us a lot about you.

At the interview we will make you an offer of a place, if we can, and usually attach conditions (such as five grade A*-C GCSE passes). We will confirm your place at enrolment in late August or early September.

Open Events
The College holds an open day on a Saturday each year.

Enrolment
In July we will write to you with a date and time for enrolment. You will need to bring your exam result slips. Enrolment will commence in August.

What if?
If you change your mind or don't meet the entry requirements, don't panic! All students are seen again at enrolment and we will try to negotiate the necessary changes.

What about costs?
There are no course fees if you are under 19 on August 31st prior to the start of your course, and you are a 'home student' (that is, you have been resident in Britain or the European Union for three years before your course begins). If you are an overseas student (if you don't meet these conditions) then fees may be payable.

This can be a very complicated area, so please ask for our advice if you are in any doubt. We will confirm any fees to be charged.

Please note LSC normally admits students between the ages of 16 and 18 to full-time programmes.

Books and materials
Basic textbooks are provided free. Students may buy any extra texts and materials if they wish.

Help with costs
The College can provide generous financial support. Please ask at your interview for more information. You may be able to apply for an EMA (Education Maintenance Allowance) which means you may receive a weekly sum to study and a bonus on successful completion and achievement of your qualification.
