Fantastic facilities, giving you the practical skills you'll need in your career
To study at Guildford college is to benefit from some exceptional facilities, which replicate real-world working environments including hairdressing and beauty salons, a TV studio, cabin crew room, kitchens and a restaurant. As well as industry-standard facilities, we offer professional teaching by industry specialists and provide comprehensive support.
Qualifications range from entry level to degree level, in a wide range of subjects, many of which you can’t study at school! Success rates are higher than national benchmarks and many of our students go on to work in local commerce and industry, benefitting the surrounding region with their talents and skills.
Just over a third of our students study full-time courses, with the majority of those aged between 16 and 18 years old. Most part-time students are adults. We also work closely with local employers to provide relevant and tailored training for their employees.
