Advice for your application

There are different ways to apply to us depending on your course and level of study. To take the stress out of your application, we've put together some advice for undergraduate and postgraduate taught applications.

If you're looking to study a full-time undergraduate course and you're from the UK, you'll need to apply online via UCAS. Applications for all UCAS Undergraduate courses starting in September 2024 are now closed. If you missed the deadline, you can still apply through Clearing. Clearing opens on 5 July 2024, sign up for updates.

Part-time, postgraduate and international students can apply online direct to us. You will find full information on the 'How to apply' tab on each course page.
