How to apply

Most students think about applying in their last year of school – but it can take time to decide whether Bridge is the college you want to come to, and to have a proper assessment of your needs.

So it is a good idea to arrange to visit us well before this. Our advice is to apply in plenty of time.

All applications are made with the help of your Connexions Advisor. Most students have to look at several choices as well as Bridge College before deciding that Bridge College is the best one for you.

Fees are paid by the local authority.

Sometimes applying for a place at a specialist college can be hard because lots of questions are asked and you will be asked to consider alternatives – even if you don’t think they are right for you and are not your first choice. Don’t let that put you off – ask for help from your Connexions Advisor – and of course you can contact us at Bridge College too.

To get in touch or to ask for an application form, you can:

Telephone: 0161 487 4293 (ask to speak to one of the Heads of Department – just say which course you have chosen. You are welcome to visit us – just ask for an appointment).
