We welcome students to our courses from all around the world.

Because we have a smaller student cohort than most colleges we are able to offer a service more tailored to your needs. Whether you join us on a course in London or in Birmingham, we aim to ensure that you get the most from your studies, make lasting friendships with fellow students and faculty members, and take away the very best experiences from your time with us.

We offer support with a range of issues including (but not limited to):

  • Support for students with a disability
  • Referrals to counselling support
  • Advice and guidance if you have problems at home
  • Career, CV and help improving your chances of getting a job
  • Financial advice if you have unexpected money problems and access to hardship funds
  • Help if you experience a crisis

The current conflict unfolding in Ukraine is something we are monitoring closely. We are saddened to see the horrific events occurring and will do everything we can to support all our students, staff, and wider communities.

Please know that whatever your nationality, you are not alone. We are here to support you in any way we can, particularly those who are from and have family and friends in Ukraine, Russia, and the surrounding regions. More than ever, this a time for unity and mutual support and not one to spread division or hate. We are stronger if we face this crisis together.

During this crisis it is critical we all stay informed and look for unbiased and factual information from reputable sources. We understand the news coverage and saturation of the events unfolding are horrific, so please take time to switch off and recharge away from the news. Please be kind and respect the different ways this crisis will be impacting everyone.

Students can contact the Welfare team for support with their mental health and wellbeing, either on their own behalf or if they are worried about another student.

I love the learning environment, the lecturers use a mix of theoretical and practical teaching styles that are always tailored to our needs. They are extremely enthusiastic and informative and always there to support me if I need assistance. This makes me confident that I will succeed in my studies.
