Enrolment is the official process of joining Burnley College on your chosen course - it is the formal agreement between you, the College and the education authority that secures your place.
Even if you have already submitted an application, you still need to enrol. An application is an expression of interest only. Without completing enrolment, you will not hold a confirmed place on your course. Think of it as the final, essential step that makes everything official.
If you have applied, you should have received a time slot to come in and enrol. If you can't make your time, please email [email protected].
The Themis Apprenticeship enrolment process is different. If you need support, please contact [email protected].
