    Hi Frazer,

    Because of the way our courses at Harrogate are scheduled they are staggered a little throughout the year compared to Senior Entry. That said, after an Assessment Centre pass, it is usually not very long before you will get your date as we will want to get you into the earliest intake we can!

    Hi Frazier!
    Thanks for your question, I was a section commander at AFC Harrogate between 2016-2018, some of my recruits passed selection/assessment as little as a month before starting. There are three entry dates, March, September and October (October start dates are mostly for Scottish students who receive some of their grades later).
    Hope this helps!
