Why How to theapply University of Wolverhampton? So, you’re ready to apply – what next?

We are diverse: almost two thirds of our new students are the first in their family to go to university, almost half are 21 or older, and over half are from global majority backgrounds.

Whatever your circumstances, we’re keen to make the application process as simple as possible for you.

The lecturers were really supportive, and the course was really interactive. My aim is to eventually work with children in Dubai. I’d definitely recommend going to university to anyone.

Most school-leavers apply for a full-time undergraduate course. You’ll need to do this through the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS).

Dive straight in to making friends, or apply with your current friends and live together with them. I stayed in university-owned accommodation last year. It was probably one of the best experiences I have had since moving to the Midlands. It’s a place you get to meet new people and new friends - the thing I liked the most was the community aspect.
