Your interview
We can't wait to meet you and talk about your chosen course, take you on a tour of the campus, and give you the opportunity to meet some current students. This guide will help you to prepare for the interview. It also outlines what you can expect from the day and what you need to bring with you.
What to expect
We are conducting all interviews via video/ phone. You will be sent all the necessary details if you are invited to this stage. If you are under the age of 18, you will also require parental consent to be on camera should you be invited to a video interview.
Practical sessions
As part of the interview for our Level 3 Equine Management course, you will be required to submit a video showing your riding abilities. You will also be required to watch the course presentation video below prior to your interview.
We may also need to seek parental consent before we ask you for this, but don't worry our Admissions team will be on hand to help you along the way.
The criteria we’ll use to assess your performance on the interview day include your ability to communicate effectively and clearly; a demonstration of your passion for the course; and your ability to listen and follow instructions.
