How to Enrol at the Fashion Retail Academy

When do I enrol? 

You cannot enrol until you have uploaded your achieved grades on the FRA portal. It is very important you upload your results on GCSE Results Day on 24 August 2023 even if they aren’t what you were expecting. Without them, we can't progress your application. 

Enrolment takes place on 24 August 2023 and will stay open until 4pm on the 25 August 2023 or when the course is full, whichever is sooner. After submitting your results, we'll send you an email with a link to enrol on the FRA portal. 

• Please don't submit your results until you have added them all
• You won't be able to enrol until you have uploaded all your results 

If you don’t enrol by the enrolment deadline, you could lose your place at the Fashion Retail Academy.

What do I need to enrol? 

You’ll need to give us photographs or scans of: 

• Original exam certificates of your official result notification (e.g. GCSEs, A or AS Levels, GNVQs, BTEC National Diploma or other similar qualifications) 
• Proof of your current address e.g. A recent utility bill, bank statement (within the last three months), National Insurance letter etc.
• Proof of I.D – a Passport* or birth certificate with additional photo ID (such as a driving licence) 
• Passport-style photograph. This must be a headshot without filters or emojis and against a plain background. This will be used for your FRA pass.  

*We do not store your passport information after we have verified your identity 

How long will it take to enrol? 

If you have all the information you need to hand, it should take you around 15-20 minutes to enrol. 

What happens if I haven’t met the minimum entry criteria for the course? 

If you haven’t met the minimum entry criteria, it’s still important to upload your results. 

We'll send you a confirmation email when we have received them. We can then review your application.

What happens if I apply/receive an offer after the enrolment date? 

If you apply during or after enrolment, we will review your application.

If we still have places available on your chosen course and you meet the entry criteria, you will qualify for late enrolment.

What happens if I accept my offer after online enrolment has closed? 

If we still have spaces available, we'll send you an email and invite you to enrol.  You must complete your enrolment within two working days, or you could lose your place at the Fashion Retail Academy.

What happens after enrolment? 

When you have completed online enrolment, make sure you press ‘Submit’. Then we will send you an email confirming your place at the Fashion Retail Academy.  

This email will also contain more information about starting at the FRA, including: 

• When you can expect to receive your timetable 
• More information about your course

What if I accidentally upload the incorrect results or pressed submit too soon?

If you have applied for student loan, this will not be released until you have successfully enrolled.

Enrolment should take you around 10 minutes.  

What happens if I haven’t met the entry criteria for the course? 

If you haven’t met the criteria, we'll take another look at your application and make a final decision based on our course teams’ feedback. 

What happens after enrolment? 

After you have completed online enrolment, we will email you inviting you to our Freshers Week!
