The form can be obtained from your own school or directly from any one of the three colleges - you can download and print a form yourself.

How to Apply
You should send your form directly to the Admissions Officer at Varndean College. It is advisable to complete your application as soon as possible.
Varndean College offers daytime courses to students at three levels:
- Advanced courses: A package of A levels (A2 & AS), OCR or BTEC National courses
- Intermediate courses: A package of GCSE's or BTEC First courses
- pre-Apprentice Traineeships - for students who may need to achieve qualifications or confidence, in order to progress on to Level 2 courses, training or employment
The exact composition of your course will depend on your individual needs. These will be discussed with you throughout the admissions process and will depend on -
- your qualifications when you arrive at college
- your personal ambitions regarding higher education and/or employment
- your personal wishes
- whether you are a full-time or a part-time student
Please be assured that we will take account of your personal circumstances. These are guidelines only and if, in our judgement, a course is appropriate for you, then we will enrol you.
