How to Apply
All applications to UK universities (excluding the Open
University) and certain colleges of higher education must
be made through UCAS for entry to FULL-TIME and SANDWICH:
• first degree courses (including those with foundation
years)
• Diploma in Higher Education courses
• Higher National Diploma courses
UCAS is a computerised national applications system.
Students complete one application form which allows up to
six choices of institutions and/or courses so that you do
not have to make costly and time-consuming multiple
applications.
Courses in the scheme are listed in the UCAS Directory and
you must apply through UCAS even if applying for admission
with credit or for transfer from a full-time
degree/diploma course at another institution. Home
students wishing to seek advice about entry with credit
before applying, please contact Jane Wood.
You may apply to up to six choices of institution/course
on the UCAS form. You should not feel obliged to use all
six choices if you do not wish to. Your choices can be
formed in any way from the courses listed in the UCAS
Directory, and you may, for example, mix both degree and
non-degree courses if appropriate. For each degree course
choice you should select either a single honours or a
joint honours degree course.
If you wish to apply to the same institution for more than
one course, you will normally have to make a separate
entry for each choice. However, if you wish to be
considered for both a degree course and an HND in the same
subject at the same institution, this will only count as a
single choice and the institution may make a joint offer
for both courses. You should in this case apply using the
course code for the degree course and enter "HND" in
section 3(f) of the application form. You should list your
choices in the order in which they appear in the Handbook.
There is no facility for you to express an order of
preference, and all your applications will be treated
equally. Take care to enter the details of the
institutions and courses clearly and correctly on the
application form.
