Next steps

Apprenticeships or employment

If you are moving onto an Apprenticeship with the College Group then the Apprenticeships team will be in touch with further options.

If you are moving to an Apprenticeship elsewhere, or going into work then you will NOT receive anything from the College Group. Please let us know the name and address of your employer.

If you choose an Apprenticeship as your next step destination but do not go on to secure an Apprenticeship placement, please be aware that a place on a full‑time course at Loughborough College Group is not guaranteed.

If this situation arises, our Admissions and Careers teams will work with you to identify any suitable courses across the Group that still have availability, provided you meet the entry requirements. We will then offer you the most appropriate alternative option based on your qualifications, interests, and progression goals.

Changing subjects

If appropriate your tutor will recommend you for your new course. You will need to be accepted onto the new area you want to move into. If successful, we’ll let you know you’ve got a place. You must then get the required grades, and enrol on your allocated date to secure your place.

Part-time course

At Loughborough College Group, our part-time courses are available only to adult learners aged 19 and over. If you are under 18, you are not eligible to study part-time unless you also work or volunteer for 20 hours or more per week. Your alternative options include:

• Remaining in full-time education (for example, at a college)
• Beginning an Apprenticeship or Traineeship
• Looking at part time study with alternate providers who may have a wider provision available for learners of all ages

New course with a different provider

If you would like to study a course with a different college or training provider you will need to follow their application process and let us know so we can update our information.
