Securing a place on a course at Oldham College is subject to meeting entry requirements, capacity and availability.
Thursday 21st August (GCSE Results Day) is an invite-only event for 16-18 applicants with an Oldham College Promise. This is for applicants who have received an offer and accepted this offer. Please do not come to enrol on this day unless you have been invited.

At Stage 2, you will sign your Learning Agreement, have your photo taken and complete the enrolment process. If you are an adult learner, here you will discuss your funding options and arrange payment of any fees.
