Admission Process

Undergraduate & Postgraduate Process


Identify where and what you want to study in order to conduct precision research and prepare accordingly.



1


In the UCAS Hub dashboard, you’ll see a tile called ‘Your application’ which is where you can begin your application. There is a lot of information here so be sure to give yourself plenty of time to take breaks and come back to it.

4


Note down the application deadlines for your universities and courses as well as the entry requirements.



2


Towards the end of the application, you’ll need to write  our personal statement. This is similar to your cover letter in that you express why you’d like to study at the university, and what skills and experience you have.

5


Register in the UCAS Hub and complete the registration questions, confirming key details such as the year you want to start your studies and that you are interested in ‘Undergraduate’ level of study.

3


Review your application thoroughly and then submit it. Before it can be sent off to any universities/colleges, you’ll need to get a reference and pay your application fee.
