What happens when I visit campus?
You will be welcomed by a friendly member of staff who will speak to you about your next steps. Whether this is starting your enrolment or helping you to find a course based around your interests, we can help. It’s also a great chance for you to get a feel for what it would be like to study with us.
What financial support is available?
We don’t want finance to be a barrier to study. We offer financial support to students to help with costs including travel, meals, childcare, fees and course-related costs, if you meet certain eligibility criteria. For full details of the support available visit our Student Financial Support webpage.
Please note, funds are limited and subject to eligibility criteria, so students are advised to apply immediately following their enrolment. A Student Financial Support Fund application form will be emailed to you and our staff can help support you through the application. In order to complete the application students will be asked to show their income evidence to staff (e.g. working tax credit/child tax credit award notice, benefits letter, Universal Credits statement, home office letter/ASPEN/ARC Card).
If you are 20+ and applying for childcare, you must also bring a copy of your child’s birth certificate.
If you require childcare support, you can apply now by downloading the childcare applications form, and quote form, from our Student Financial Support webpage.
Applications must be checked and signed by curriculum admin teams before being scanned and submitted to childcareadvice@leedscitycollege.ac.uk.

The department you are studying with will contact you to arrange your return date to college and detail any information regarding what you need to bring with you.
