What to Expect

Please be aware that the enrolment process can take some time, so make sure you pop in when you’ve got a couple of hours to spare!

When you arrive, you’ll enter the building to be greeted by our friendly team ready to check you in! 

If you’ve already applied, just give us your name and what course area you’ve applied for – then you can head over to the waiting area.

If you haven’t applied – no problem! Let our team know you’re a new applicant, they’ll ask you to fill in some quick details to get your checked in – then you can head over to the waiting area.

When they’re ready to see you, a member of your chosen areas lecturing staff will come over to collect you and take you for your interview. Don’t worry, this isn’t really an interview! Here you’ll have a chat with your lecturer about what you’d like to do in the future and your past achievements, which they’ll use to work out which course level is best for you!

Once you’ve confirmed which course you’ll be studying, it’s time to visit our Maths & English team, who’ll take note of your grades and any other information they might need from you.

Next up, enrolment time! You’ll get checked in to our enrolment queue and head over to the enrolment waiting area to wait for your name to be called.

On your turn, you’ll sit down with our enrolment team and get yourself signed up for the course you want to do! Our team will go through your financial situation to see if you’re eligible for any financial support on things such as school meals or kit for your course. Once that’s all done and you’ve signed the dotted line, you’ll officially be an East Durham College student!

…but wait! One last step before you go! Make sure you’ve got on your best threads as we’ll need to snap a quick photo for your student ID and bus pass. Then, you’re free to go!

As previously mentioned, this process can be lengthy depending on how busy we are on the day. We ask for your patience as our amazing team try and get you enrolled as quickly as they can!
