How to apply
Undergraduate courses
To apply for a undergraduate course, you should apply directly to the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS). You can find out how to do this on our online application guide.
You may apply at any time before 30 June in the academic year before entry, but you should try to apply before 15 January. Home and EU students are required to apply by this date. If you apply later places are likely to have already been allocated.
If you are applying with the assistance of an agent or British Council office, they will handle the application process for you and guide you through the UCAS process.
Postgraduate courses
To apply for a postgraduate course, you should complete our standard postgraduate application form and send this direct to the University.
All completed application forms should be sent to the Direct Admissions Team at the University, either by post, e-mail or fax

If you are applying through one of our agents they will forward the form to the University on your behalf. You may also apply online via the Education UK website and the Prospects website.
There is no fixed deadline for applying for postgraduate courses, but you should send your application form to us as soon as possible as courses do fill up.
Research degrees
Once you have decided in which area you would like to perform research, we encourage you to have an informal discussion with staff in the relevant research centre.
You should then apply using our standard postgraduate application form and send this to the faculty office for the research theme that you are applying for.
You are asked to provide full details of your academic and work background and most applications require the names of two academic referees.
When considering an application the University must ensure the research proposal is appropriate, the applicant is suitably qualified and adequate supervision and facilities are available. We consider applications throughout the year as there is no formal deadline.
After enrolment, you must submit a formal research proposal within three months to the University's Research Degrees Sub-Committee for approval.
Help with applying
If you need help with your application or would like some advice on study options, you can contact one of our recruitment agents in your country or a British Council office in your area.
You can also meet one of our representatives at the events and fairs we attend in your country. You can collect more information about our courses, discuss your qualifications and find out about student life at the University.
