NCI-RPEL

Hi,

I am interested to know how many places are available each year for applicants who are proceeding through the RPEL route? Has anyone had any prior experience with this route? Do they call you for interview?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks

Had a read through this already, thanks though

Did this last year when applying to a HDip course.

Watched the pretty Youtube video, read the guides and finally I've put together a 100+ page portfolio.
I've received the first reply 2 months later (July) that I'm accepted, my payment options are...
In September admissions called me that the course won't run, but I'm automatically accepted to pretty much anything else. I picked another HDip (not quite in line with my portfolio), paid the difference, happy days.

My course director initially didn't even know I was coming with RPEL, so I'm not sure if a full RPEL committee was assessing my application originally...

Anyway, worked out fine for me, so I'm happy.
