Admission Process

The Admission process at Colbourne College is fair and non-discriminatory.  

The Student Services Office (SSO) provides a comprehensive Admission and
Orientation programme for incoming freshmen.  

How to Enroll at Colbourne –

1. Application Process

1.1. Attend an open house session at a campus near you and purchase an
Application Handbook.  Handbook is $350 (Handbook can be mailed to you).

the Application Package from the Student Services Office.

2. Take the Placement Test

All students entering Colbourne College are required to sit a basic proficiency
test.  This is a computation test which includes English Language, and
Mathematics. Assessment is by multiple choice questions and an Essay.   The
Placement test helps us to place you in appropriate level programmes.  The cost

of $1, 500.

their result within 5 working days by calling or visiting the Student Office.

Examination at a cost of $1500 per sitting.

programme at Colbourne applicants must successfully pass the placement
examination with a Grade of D or higher.    Applicants will pay their compulsory
programme deposit of 10% of the Tuition cost and the required student fee at this

the payment is recorded on the Tuition Page of the student handbook along with
our refund policy.
