  Application process

If you live overseas and would like to apply for a place at West London College, the correct application procedure is explained here. By selecting a link, you will be given further details regarding each stage of the application process.

  • 1. Submit completed application form.
    • For details of how and where to send your application form please continue to the next stage of the application process.
  • 2. Receive International Admission Document.
    • If your application is successful the College will send you an 'offer' letter and an International Admission Document (IAD), together with an Enrolment Form, both bearing your Application Reference Number (6 digits). The IAD confirms your acceptance, gives start dates and also itemises the costs. The Enrolment Form will be needed later to confirm that you accept the offer.
  • 3. Pay tuition fees/accommodation deposit
    • Once you have received your International Admission Document the next step is to pay tuition fees. The amount that you will have to pay in advance depends on your circumstances (eg. whether you need a visa and where that visa needs to be obtained, and will be indicated on your IAD). There are four methods of payment: Bank transfer, Bank draft/Cheque, Credit Card and Cash. Whichever method you use you should ensure that your Application Reference Number is quoted and that the payment is accompanied by, or coincides with the arrival of, your signed Enrolment Form.

      NB. If you require accommodation there is a minimum deposit of £300.
  • 4. Receive Visa Letter (or CAS number) and Accommodation Booking Form.
    • Once we have received your tuition fees we will send you either a Visa Letter, which you will be required to present to your local British Embassy or High Commission or, under the new system due in early 2010, a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) number which will tally with information the College will already have provided about you to the immigration authorities. You will also receive comprehensive instructions on how to apply for a visa, together with an Accommodation Booking Form for use when you have your visa and are ready to travel.
  • 5. Obtain Student Visa from local British authorities (if required).
    • Applicants from non-EU/EEA countries are required to obtain a visa in advance to their journey to London. This will involve submitting an application form to your local British Embassy or High Commission (the form can be downloaded from their website) together with the documents that we have provided and various other items. Advice will be sent to you by the College along with your Visa Letter. Please see our Student visa page for more information.
      Please note that if you are refused entry to the United Kingdom by a British Embassy or High Commission your tuition fees will be refunded. We will retain the registration fee of £100.
  • 6. Notify College of flight details and accommodation requirements.
    • Once you have your visa you must let the Student Services department know if you require Accommodation and/or Airport Collection. To do this you should send your Accommodation Booking Form to the College, either by email or by fax, indicating your requirements. The College will respond (using the same medium of communication) so that you know where to go and what to do on arrival.
  • 7. Arrive in London to start your course
    • If you have booked airport collection and hostel accommodation you will be met in the Arrivals Hall of the airport by a driver who will take you directly to your accommodation. You should then report to the College at any time between 10am and 5pm on the course start date shown on your College documents. If you are delayed and arrive after the date shown, please contact the college by telephone on arrival and you will be given instructions.
