Full-time undergraduate courses

If you are applying for a full-time undergraduate course you will still need to apply via UCAS.

How to tell if I can use the Online Application system for my course?

Visit our Course Search to see whether or not the Apply Online option is available on the right hand side. If there is no Apply Online option or you are unable to apply online, you can download our paper based application form to complete and send to us by post. You will need Adobe Reader to download this form. You will need to print the form, complete it in BLOCK CAPITALS and send to us, along with a copy of your CV.

Applying online enables you to provide us with all the information we need to be able to make a decision on whether we can offer you a place on your chosen course, easily and conveniently.

You will not have to complete the form in one session and as long as you reach the end of a section and save what you have entered up to that point, your data will be held until you return. You can apply for one course on your initial application, which we won't consider until you have completed all sections and clicked the submit button. If your application is unsuccessful or you decide to decline an offer that has been made to you, you will be able to apply for an additional course choice at that time. You can withdraw an application you have drafted or submitted at any time.

Please read our instructions page on how to get started.
