You will hear from us within 10 working days of your interview. Our letter will contain one of the following offers;

you can be offered a firm place. The letter will explain the conditions in detail.

available and your exam results are satisfactory.

4 An invitation to a further guidance interview. This means that after your first interview the course tutor
felt another course might be more suitable.
