Online Application
Convince Us!
In stage 1 you gain experience of completing an online 'job application'-type form.
Our Contact Teachers are made aware when each year's application round is opened. Applications are welcomed from early September to mid-November each year. First, your teacher must nominate you on our online portal. Then each student must complete a detailed online form setting out their:
- GCSE/Scottish National 5 (or equivalent) subjects and predicted exam grades
- Intended subjects of study beyond GCSEs/Scottish National 5s
- What interests them about engineering
- Post-school education and career aspirations
- A practical engineering/technology project
- Extra-curricular activities, particularly those highlighting their leadership skills
It is the teacher who finally submits each student's application, after adding their own Reference for each students.
Further details of the online application stage can be found in Sections 4 of the Arkwright Handbook.
