To give prospective students the opportunity to speak to lecturers about their application and course options for the 2025/26 session, Edinburgh College is hosting an Exam Results Drop In event at its Sighthill Campus on Thursday 7 August.

From 10.30am to 2pm, prospective students will be able to speak to lecturers about their course options following the release of exam results, and will get the chance to secure a place on a course for the upcoming academic session.

Those who have changed their mind about their original course choice, or who have not yet made an application for college but would like to study this year are also encouraged to attend.

Edinburgh College offers courses across a wide range of subject areas within the Creative Industries, Construction and Engineering, Health, Wellbeing and Social Sciences, and Tourism, Hospitality and Business faculties. Courses are delivered in a variety of study modes, including full-time and part-time study, and cater to the diverse needs of today’s student.

As well as this, Student Services will be on hand at the event to provide advice on funding options and access to learning support for those who are seeking further information about their study options for the coming year.

The Edinburgh College course clearing phone line will also be open for applicants and prospective students to call from 9am to 4pm between Tuesday 5 and Friday 15 August to discuss their applications and courses ahead of the new term. The course clearing line number is 0131 297 8300.

Edinburgh College Principal Audrey Cumberford said: “Clearing is a crucial time for applicants and prospective students who are still exploring their options for the next step in their educational journey. At Edinburgh College, our fantastic range of courses are not only delivered by expert teaching staff, but are also designed to provide students with the skills they need to either continue their learner journey or achieve their chosen career. I strongly encourage you to come along to our clearing event or reach out to our teams through our dedicated clearing line to find out how you can Experience Edinburgh College.”
