Partnership agreements<br />
The <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Winchester</strong> is<br />
committed to encouraging and supporting<br />
all students who have academic<br />
potential and ability to progress to higher<br />
education. We have therefore formed<br />
partnership agreements with a number <strong>of</strong><br />
schools and colleges across the southern<br />
region and in the Channel Islands.<br />
Compact agreements<br />
Compact applicants to the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Winchester</strong> are guaranteed an <strong>of</strong>fer <strong>of</strong> a<br />
place for non-interview subjects. For subjects<br />
that require an interview, applicants are<br />
guaranteed an invitation to interview.<br />
In addition, we endeavour to provide a<br />
lower <strong>of</strong>fer (for instance at the bottom<br />
<strong>of</strong> the range <strong>of</strong> points typically needed),<br />
a contact in our Student Services<br />
department or a place in <strong>University</strong><br />
Managed Housing for students who require<br />
it. Please speak to your tutor, Careers<br />
Adviser or the <strong>University</strong>’s Education<br />
Liaison team for more information on how<br />
to apply.<br />
