How to choose an undergraduate course
If you have a clear career goal or passion, you might know exactly what you want to study. If not, start by thinking about what subjects you enjoy and where your strengths lie.
Need help deciding? We've got some guidance on how to choose a degree and understanding university entry requirements. Talk to friends and family, as well as your teachers or careers advisers. Ultimately the choice is down to you.
Undergraduate application process
If you're applying for a full-time course, you can apply through UCAS. The equal consideration deadline for most courses is in January, but you can still apply as normal through UCAS until the 30 June. Applications made after this will be entered into Clearing.
Applying for a part-time course? You'll need to apply directly through our online application system.
