At SCA, the traditional rules of further education simply don’t apply.

After you have applied for a place on the course you will receive a call from the Dean, Marc Lewis, to find out more about your talents and aspirations.

If Marc thinks the course is right for you (and you are right for the course) you will be invited into the School to deliver a 4-minute presentation.

Don’t panic. We won’t be expecting you to present lots of ads or anything like that, we just want to find out a bit more about you and your passions.

Every year we’re blown away by how inventive, passionate and unique our prospective students are.

Your presentation can take any form you like. It can be delivered on screen via laptop, or presented via the medium of dance, poetry, film, music, comedy, mime – absolutely anything you like. Every year we’re blown away by how inventive, passionate and unique our prospective students are.

After the presentation, you’ll meet the current intake of students, then you’ll be set a couple of fun tasks so we can find out more about how you think and work with others.

At the end of the day you’ll have the chance to ask the students anything you like about the course (without the staff in the room, if you’d prefer!) so you can get an absolutely honest view of what the course is like, and have any questions you have honestly answered.
