UCAS Deadlines

There are many different UCAS application deadlines depending on what course and level you wish to study.

If you are applying to Oxbridge, or for a medicine, dentistry or veterinary medicine course, the application deadline is October 16th. For all other undergraduate courses, the deadline is January 30th. If you miss this deadline, do not worry; almost all UK universities accept international applications up to June 30th.

UCAS FAQ

UCAS Extra

If you received no offers from your five UCAS choices or changed your mind about which courses and institutions to apply to, UCAS Extra allows you to add another choice to your application. UCAS Extra opens each February and lasts until July. If you still do not have an offer after the July deadline, you can enter UCAS Clearing.

UCAS Clearing

UCAS Clearing is for domestic and international students who are unable to secure an offer from a UK university for three reasons:

• They applied after the deadline
• Exam results fell short of offer requirements
• No offers were received, or no offers were accepted
