Paying for access creative college

If I apply for a course at access creative college at age 18, will I still have to pay for the course as I will turn 19 on my 2nd year. This is also assuming I did my a level exams

If you start a course at age 18, your first year is normally funded, provided it is your first full Level 3 qualification. When you turn 19 in your second year, funding can still continue, but it depends on your previous qualifications.
Because you mentioned that you have already completed A levels (which are a Level 3 qualification), you may not be eligible for free tuition, as funding is usually only provided for a first full Level 3 course. In this case, you may need to pay fees or apply for support such as an Advanced Learner Loan.
I would recommend contacting Access Creative College directly with your qualification details so they can confirm your personal fee status.
