Step 2. Advice and Guidance Meeting

Following your application, you will be invited to an Advice and Guidance meeting to chat with us about your chosen Study Programme.

The purpose of the appointment is for you to receive more information, so you feel confident in your course choices.

It is not a selection interview, and you can dress informally and enjoy this opportunity to find out more about Huish. 

If you attend one of our local feeder schools the appointment will take place at your school on a date arranged with your school. 

If we are not booked in to visit your school, you will receive an invite to an appointment on our campus. 

For applicants living at a considerable distance virtual/telephone appointments can be arranged.

At the appointment you will receive your offer of a place and we will confirm the entry requirements for your courses.

Step 3. Welcome to Huish (Taster Days) and Huish Headstart

You will be invited to our ‘Welcome to Huish’ events in July where you can trial your lessons and meet other students before you join us in September.

You will also be sent information about our Headstart Programme. The programme is designed to help you familiarise yourself with the type of work you will be completing at Huish.

Step 4. Enrolment

You will be invited to enrol on one of our enrolment days at the end of August.

At enrolment you will:

  • confirm your Study Programme
  • provide your GCSE results
  • pay the Huish Experience Fee (see below)
  • have your photo taken for your Student ID card
  • receive details about the start of term.

You will then be a Huish student and ready for your first day! 

Huish Experience Fee

All Level 2 and 3 students are required to make a one-off payment when they enrol.

This contributes towards the wider educational experience we provide beyond our statutory requirements.

This includes additional elements of student support, student welfare, enrichment, IT facilities, visits and extension activities, all of which are accessible and available to all our students.

The fee is as follows:

  • Level 2 Pathway – £40.00
  • Level 3 Study Programme – £80.00
