NESCol’s advice team will be on hand to guide prospective students through the application process and answer general queries. There will also be the opportunity to speak to subject specialists. A dedicated phone hotline and LiveChat support will also be available, with drop-in support on offer at the City and Fraserburgh campuses throughout the week.

NESCol Principal Neil Cowie said: “Experience tells us that waiting for exam results can be a worrying time – but we are here to help and offer friendly advice to help every individual with that next step beyond school. With courses from entry level through to HND, offering degree pathways and routes to employment, there are choices for everyone.

“The aim of Clearing week at NESCol is to provide support and guidance, with the opportunity to match potential applicants to the places we have available. We also provide advice to those who have already applied and now have their results.”
