    Highly doubt it, they probably used that fees to provide that education.

    I think you are confusing your fees. Colleges may charge additional fees to cover administration, books etc which are in addition to the cost of the level 3 course fees which are paid by the government on your behalf if it is your first level 3 qualification.

    A typical fee for one complete A level (AS and A2) is £600 - £900. So if you do average of 3 A levels that is £1800 - £2700. A BTEC or Access course is in the range of £1000 - £1500 per year.

    Look at the application form you signed, you will probably find wording that all students are required to pay an enrollment and a college fee in addition to any course fee due. Even my sixth form college had a non refundable college fee, payable annually.
