What happens next?
Our admissions tutors will assess your qualifications, experience and abilities before offering you a place on their course.When an offer has been awarded, we will send you the offer via email along with an accommodation request form if you would like to live on campus.
If your offer is conditional on obtaining a specific level of English proficiency you may wish to consider our Pre-sessional English programme (PSEL) as a way to gain skills and confidence prior to your main course. If you require a more intensive course we can also put you in touch with a local language school.
If you successfully receive an offer to study at Writtle College you must return the acceptance forms, providing evidence that you have met any conditions (if applicable) and pay your deposit (International Tuition Fee Deposit Policy). You can then be issued with a Certificate for Application for Studies (CAS). This is now the only route to gaining a tier 4 student visa. Further information relating to your visa application can be found at Writtle College Visa Information.
