The Gold application route is for students who have decided that they wish to continue their studies at Loughborough College. As part of the application we will register you with UCAS which we are unable to do if you have already applied through UCAS separately. Students who are undecided should use UCAS to make their choices rather than using this Gold application pathway.
The fast-track application ensures your application is given priority processing, allowing you to receive early decisions. This means you’ll know your application outcome quicker, giving you more time to prepare for your studies.
