What to expect

Your interview will take place online. We'll send you all the necessary details if we invite you to this stage.

If we invite you to a video interview, and you're under the age of 18, you'll need parental consent to be on camera.

During the interview, we want to get to know you. We'd like to understand what makes you passionate about the course. Please don't feel nervous.

Practical sessions

As part of the interview for our Level 3 Equine Management course, you must submit a video showing your riding abilities. You must also watch the course presentation video before your interview.

We may also need to seek parental consent before we ask you for this. Don't worry, though — our Admissions team will be on hand to help you along the way.

The criteria we use to assess your performance on the interview day include:

  • your ability to communicate effectively and clearly
  • your passion for the course
  • your ability to listen and follow instructions.
