Welcome to the Swansea College Exam Centre
We accept private or external candidates at our exam centre. Whether you are home educated, taking resits, a distant learner or a mature learner our Exams Officer will be able to enter you for exams.
Our examination-based services have enabled students from across the UK and overseas to achieve GCSEs, IGCSEs and A levels.
You can sit exams with the following exam boards; WJEC, AQA, Edexcel Pearson and Cambridge.
Our aim is to help students of all ages, backgrounds and circumstances to achieve recognised qualifications in the subject/s of their choice.
Please note, if there are clashes i.e. two exams taking place at the same time, it is possible for you to take both, but you will have to be supervised between exam sessions. There will be an extra charge for this.
However, if the exam clash happens between two different centres, you need to inform both centres immediately. Provide them with your statement of entries and contact details. The exam centres will then collaborate and come up with a solution for you to sit the exam at either centre. Keep in mind that there will be an extra charge for this service, and a transfer fee set by the exam board will be applied for each paper.

Where do I find my UCI number?
We require your UCI number, this is your Unique Candidate Identifier, and will be listed on any previous exam results you have gained. If you have already sat national exams but cannot find this number, you can contact your previous school or college and they can give it to you. If you have never sat any national exams, Swansea College can generate a UCI number.
