Applications for Degree courses or other courses validated by our university partners are administered centrally by the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS).

Courses in this website to which this applies have a UCAS course code displayed in the online course details. This is the code which must be used when making an application for this course using the UCAS online application process.

The UCAS application process is straightforward and is described in detail on the UCAS website (www.ucas.ac.uk). Note that the deadline for standard applications through UCAS is quite early in the calendar year. For courses beginning in September 2009, the deadline for standard applications is 15th January 2009.

However, late applications will be considered and the clearing process, which takes place in August and September each year, also provides a welcome opportunity for late applicants to be matched to suitable courses. Of course, applicants who apply by the standard deadline are much less likely to be disappointed.
