Dates & Fees 2008
Please note that although it is best to start a course on the published starting dates, our joining dates are flexible, so it is usually possible to start at other times within a term or a course, or to stay across courses. The minimum period for enrolment is 2 weeks, but it is also possible to stay for an academic year or longer.
