Full instructions on completing your application can be found on the UCAS website, www.ucas.com and by using our step-by-step guide.

There is a charge for submitting a UCAS application. For 2024 the entry fee is £27.00 for any number of choices 1-5. The College can help with this if you qualify, ask Student Services for details.

It is vital that you send your application as soon as possible, as early applications are more likely to be successful. Please note that making a single application is inadvisable, as you are not giving yourself a safety net if you do not get an offer from the University of your choice. However do not feel you have to use up all 5 choices immediately as you may want to add a course choice in later.

Advice to Students From Overseas

There is additional information on the UCAS website (www.ucas.com) for students completing the application.

You can get help with the costs of study providing you meet the residency requirements. If you have lived in the UK, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man for five years immediately before the start of the academic year in which the course begins and you are living in England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Island on the first day of the academic year (1st September), and you have settled status then you can receive help with the cost of studying.

UK ENIC can provide you with a written individual assessment of your qualifications at a cost. Remember that many Universities use ENIC software to find out about overseas qualifications, so those Universities you are interested in applying to may be able to give you advice.

To completing your UCAS form

The UCAS application form has different sections for completion. Once you have REGISTERED to use “Apply” you can use your log in details to start completing your actual application form online and you can save and re-save the details as many times as you need to.

As you progress completing your application you can see the status of each section and any incomplete information can be added later and you will see that sections are then marked as complete when you have finished with them.
