APPLICATION
PROCESS
Varndean College, BHASVIC and Brighton MET together form the Accord Colleges in Brighton and
Hove. The three colleges have a coordinated application process for students seeking to study at any
of the Accord Colleges. Under the Accord, you will not be able to make an application to both Varndean
College and BHASVIC. This is so that these two sixth form colleges can effectively plan curriculum
provision to cater for as many students wishing to study in one of these colleges as possible. You are,
however, welcome to make an application to either of these colleges plus Brighton MET.
1. VISIT
3. ADMISSIONS INTERVIEW
Look around our beautiful and unique campus, find
out about our superb academic track record and
the outstanding support we provide, meet our staff
and students to talk about specific subjects, as
well as attend any presentations taking place.
You will be invited to attend an Admissions
Interview, usually in January/February.
At the interview we will discuss your course
choices with you, and providing you are predicted
to meet the required entry requirements and you
are supported by your school, you will be offered
a conditional place. Please note that late in the
application cycle, this may be a ‘waiting list offer’.
