Bury College has launched a new facility to provide information, advice and guidance to perspective students.
The College is aware that information, advice and guidance has been different this year and the current situation has meant that face-to-face careers guidance has been difficult to deliver.
To help support pupils who want to apply, but are unsure which course to apply for, the College has introduced a new option on the application form where applicants can request a chat with a member of the curriculum or a general Information, Advice and Guidance (IAG) appointment. Once the pupil has submitted their application, the College will then contact them to arrange an IAG appointment.
Pupils are being encouraged to submit their applications ahead of the Bury College priority application deadline date which is Friday 27th November.
