How to Enrol

     

The Autumn 2012 New Year 2013 programme will be available from mid-August.  Autumn classes start week beginning 24 September.

Costs and Conditions - There is no upper age limit, however the minimum age for students attending these adult learning programmes is 18, unless otherwise stated.

The information about each course gives details of the fee that must be paid. For many courses, a concessionary fee is also given. The concession is available for those who are in receipt of State Benefits (including pensions), or are full-time students, or are members of University staff holding a valid staff card.

Online - You can enrol online for all of our courses.  A secure online enrolment form is available. Payment by credit or debit card is included as part of the enrolment process. 

We will accept only postal and online enrolments before Monday 10th September 2012.  All methods of enrolment, including postal and online, will then be accepted from that date onwards.

By post - Students should complete the enrolment form in the centre of the brochure and can pay by cheque, credit or debit card.  If students are enrolling by post for more than one course then separate enrolment forms and cheques are needed for each course.

In person - Students may enrol in person during office hours which are Monday to Friday 9.00am – 5.00pm. If you enrol in person you may pay in cash, by cheque, credit or debit card.

By telephone - Students may enrol by telephone during office hours as detailed above, paying by credit or debit card.

Confirmation of Enrolment - Students will receive a Confirmation of Enrolment. If you enrol in person, by post or by telephone, a receipt will be sent out to you in the post. If you have enrolled online, a confirmation of enrolment will be sent to your email address.  The Confirmation of Enrolment is your only acknowledgement of enrolment. If you enrol by telephone or post and have not received your Confirmation of Enrolment within ten days then please let us know.

Over-subscribed and cancelled courses - Unfortunately, we are unable to run courses that are under-subscribed so all our courses are offered subject to a certain minimum enrolment (usually 12 students).  Occasionally we are forced to cancel a course.  If this happens we shall let you know as soon as we can and refund your enrolment fee.

Early Bird - We make the decision on whether or not to run a course seven days before the course start date based on whether we have reached the minimum number of enrolments.  So please help us to help you!  If we receive your booking at least seven days in advance of the course start date you will help us to ensure that courses are not cancelled.

Be an early bird and enrol well in advance!

Refund - We regret that fees cannot be refunded except when a course does not run or if your application is rejected because the course is full.  The University is unable to refund fees when, for whatever reason, the student fails to attend.
