Prospective students, particularly young individuals who have just completed secondary (Form 5) or post-secondary (Sixth Form) education, are invited to collect their copy of the 2017/2018 FullTime Courses Prospectus and the Application Form while visiting the MCAST Open Days.

After the MCAST Open Days, the Prospectus and the Application Form will also be available from the MCAST Main Campus in Paola, from the MCAST institutes in Mosta, Naxxar, Qormi and Kalkara, from the MCAST Gozo Campus in Ghajnsielem and from all local council offices.

The College will also be launching the Interactive Prospectus, a dynamic tool to help current and prospective students explore the College's full-time courses starting in October.
