"My dream is to be a journalist. In my English A Level I chose to do a journalism module, my tutor use to be a journalist which meant we had insider knowledge. This sparked my love for journalism, I find writing really interesting and like to find out all the gossip whilst reporting stories.

"I felt well supported throughout my time here and I'm much more resilient and confident now than I was when I started."

"I saw on UCAS that my offer changed to an unconditional offer in Criminology at both my first and second choice Uni. I am not sure what I would like to do as a career but I am interested in Law, Finance and maybe Teaching.

"Coming to college has really helped my confidence, I was so shy when I started but soon made friends. The tutors are really friendly and being on first name terms with them helps."
