Course Application Portal
Welcome to the West College Scotland Course Application Portal. If at any point you need assistance, please reach out to one of our Student Advisors - contact details at the bottom of the page.
Create a user-account before applying for a course
All applicants and direct-enrolments need to create a new user-account even if you have studied with us before Academic Year 2024/25. This is due to the College moving to a new course application management platform. Once you have created a new user-account, you can use it each year you apply to study with West College Scotland. When you create a user-account, you will register with an email address address - it is important to ensure you will have access to this email address in August and beyond. For this reason, if you are a school-pupil moving on to college, we advise that you do not use your school's GLOW email address to create your college application account.

Remember: your user-account will be a personal email address.
