September 2025 Admissions:

If you’re thinking of coming to study at The Studio or you’re a parent wanting to learn more about what we do here, then come to one of our open evenings.

You can either attend an open evening in person at the CUC Building where you can take a tour around our building, meet our students and ask our teaching team any questions that you may have.

Or, you can attend an online open evening with a member of the Senior Leadership Team. This is a quick and convenient way to find out more about what we offer and to ask any questions you might have about our curriculum.

We will be sharing our open evening sessions with Liverpool Life Sciences UTC, who share the building so you will also get a chance to see what science and health tech things the Studio students get up to.

After you have completed your online application, you will get a confirmation email. It is very important that you check the link to confirm your account. We’ll then keep in touch via emails and texts, so please remember to check them out regularly – we don’t want you to miss out! And you’ll receive updates about the exciting things that our current students are taking part in, so you have a taste of what to expect when you join us.

We know that for some people this is a long process, so please don’t hesitate to get in touch throughout the year if you have any questions – big or small.

Your first point of call for any query is our admissions team. You can contact them at:
