What do I need to bring with me?

  • Evidence of all of your current qualifications, including your GCSE results papers - or those showing your predicted grades. We can complete your enrolment without this information, but we will need to see proof of your achieved grades to confirm your level of study. Please ensure that you have checked that you meet your course's entry requirements.
  • Proof of identity - Passport or Full Birth Certificate
If you are aged 19 and over, please bring the following:
  • Evidence of all of your current qualifications, including your GCSE results papers - or those showing your predicted grades. We can complete your enrolment without this information, but we will need to see proof of your achieved grades to confirm your level of study.

  • Your chosen method for paying your tuition fees – if applicable.

If you are paying your own fees, you can either pay in full at enrolment, or payment can be made in 4 equal instalments: instalments are due by the end of October, January, March and May. 

Please check our fees and tuition page to see a full list of categories of people who are not expected to pay their tuition fees. If you do not fall into one of the listed categories, you will need to pay the tuition fees for your course. 

Access our course fees document for a full list of college tuition fees.

This is a non-means-tested loan available from the UK Government to pay the tuition fees of full level 3 qualifications (course exclusions apply**). The loan is paid directly to UCB to cover the cost of your tuition and does not have to be repaid until your income is over a certain amount (the ‘threshold’ amount). For more information on the Advanced Learner Loan, please visit www.gov.uk/advanced-learner-loan.  

**The following courses are not eligible for an Advanced Learner Loan:
