When to apply for a degree commencing in September 2012

Applications for full-time courses leading to a degree commencing in September 2012 must be submitted to UCAS between:

1 September 2011 and 15 January 2012 for home students
1 September 2011 and 30 June 2012 for overseas students

We will do our utmost to consider applications submitted late (between 15 January and 30 June). However, our ability to do this depends on the availability of places, and the number and quality of applications received, which will vary from course to course.

If you are applying for entry to Medicine or Dentistry, you must apply by 15 October 2011.

Unsure whether you will be classed as a Home/EU or an Overseas fee payer? Read definition of an overseas student for fee-paying purposes for more information.
