ADMISSIONS
Admission to Ashbourne College is selective but inclusive, focusing on motivation, academic ability, and potential to succeed within its structured yet flexible environment. Entry is open for both GCSE and A-level courses, with most students joining at 16+. Applicants attend an interview with senior staff, provide recent school reports, and may be required to take subject-based entrance assessments, depending on their academic background and intended course of study.
The college offers places for two-year A-level courses, one-year intensive A-level retakes, and GCSE programmes. Admissions are processed on a rolling basis throughout the year, though early application is recommended due to small class sizes and limited capacity. While Ashbourne does not offer formal scholarships, some financial assistance may be available in exceptional cases. The ideal candidate is self-motivated, ambitious, and ready to engage with an academically demanding and supportive environment that encourages both personal and intellectual growth.
