The short video below explains how it works:

What is enrolment?

Enrolment is designed to get you all set up, ready for your first days at college. We will check with you to confirm you have the required grades for your course. If you don’t achieve the grades you were hoping for, or you’ve changed your mind about what courses you’d like to study, please don’t worry as we will support you to find the course that’s right for you.

What happens next?

You will receive your link to enrol online in the coming weeks via email. If you have not received your email by 30th August, please do get in touch with us on 0330 123 2523 or enquiries@cornwall.ac.uk

If you are starting a full-time Further Education course with us, you will receive a letter inviting you to attend our Welcome Day/s (you should receive this letter by mid August). This is where you will meet your new Study Programme Manager and the wider campus team to kickstart your college journey.   You will be required to attend on these days. If you have any specific requirements for this day please do give us a call so that we can support you.

On the right there are some links to essential information and things you will need to do before you start college.

We are looking forward to you joining us in September, but in the meantime please click on the campus links below to explore college life and the area you wish to study.
