Making the move into the world of University is a huge leap, and for many, it can be just as scary as it is exciting. It is one of the most important choices a young person will make, where parents, guardians, teachers and careers advisors can all play an important part in helping and advising.
Here we provide some information to support students through the process.
The majority of deadlines for Undergraduate applications are set by the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS), an application service used by higher education institutes in the UK.
It鈥檚 here that students apply for their course and University of choice.
Most of our courses have a corresponding UCAS page, you can find our courses using our 鈥�Course Finder鈥�. Meanwhile, a list of important UCAS dates can be found on our admissions page.

With all the deadlines and application processes on the horizon, there are many things you can do to help make it easier from the get-go. These include:
Sit down and discuss what it is they like, what subjects they鈥檙e good at and what they might like to do in the future. This will help them to think about what they want to do, making applying for courses easier
From finding the right course and place to study to reputation, size and accommodation, it鈥檚 important to research everything.
This will help find the exact course they鈥檙e looking to potentially study. You may even find a course that mixes others they鈥檙e passionate about together, or, it could change their mind on what they wish to study.
Once you鈥檝e shortlisted some Universities, attend the Open Days (usually 9am 鈥� 3pm), where you鈥檒l be able to meet lecturers, explore the facilities, surrounding areas and ask questions. A great way to get advice regarding your subject choice, funding, careers, making your application and everything in between. Find out more about our Open Days and how to book your place on one here.
Once all this has been done, they should be able to decide on the University they want to attend, making the application process that little bit smoother
While we provide Open Days for potential students, we also host Access All Areas Days too.

For all those teachers and tutors trying to help their students when it comes to University, we do as much as we can to help you when supporting young people.
One way we can help is by providing presentations either here or at your school or college. During these presentations, a member of staff will talk to your pupils about the following subjects:
These talks can also be offered at parent鈥檚 evenings or as drop-in student sessions. Alongside these talks, we also offer Academic Enrichment Taster Sessions.
Designed to help students when it comes to choosing a course, these sessions provide a look at what鈥檚 to come before they join the 黑料吃瓜网, helping them to see if it鈥檚 right for them.
We also offer bespoke visits to our University. These allow you to tailor your visit to the specific needs of your students. From a tour and taster session to visiting specific departments and discussions around careers, our academic team can help arrange all of this for your pupils.
