Preparing for University

At LILA* College, we prepare our students thoroughly for their future careers.

Students wishing to study at a British university are required to submit an application to the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS). We guide our students through every stage of the UCAS application process.

Our UCAS Advisor holds regular one-to-one meetings with all A Level students, providing them with individual support tailored to their needs that includes specialist advice and information about subject choices and combinations, suitable degree courses and which offers to accept.

Our UCAS Advisor also helps students to write an effective personal statement and to complete their UCAS form correctly. Those students who are invited to interview receive coaching in interview techniques and mock interview practice.

In addition to supporting students with their UCAS application, our UCAS Advisor offers careers advice and can help students to arrange work experience placements, providing guidance about composing an eye-catching CV and writing a cover letter.
