How to apply

International applicants

We are no longer able to accept applications from international undergraduate students for 2026.

Already applied through UCAS

If you didn’t get the results you needed for your first or insurance choice university, or if you have secured a place but have changed your mind and want to study elsewhere, you can still find a place at Sheffield Hallam through clearing.

Here’s what you need for clearing and how it works in three simple steps.

Step 1: Check the UCAS Hub

Before you do anything else, check the UCAS Hub to see if your first or insurance choice university has confirmed your place. If not, you can decide to enter clearing.

Step 2: Call us 

Call us on 0330 024 6390 when clearing opens.

When you call up, you’ll need a full list of your results, including your GCSE grades. It’s also good to have your UCAS Personal ID number if you're registered with UCAS or your Sheffield Hallam student ID. This is an 8-digit number you can find on emails or letters sent to you by our admissions team.

If we make you an offer, we’ll email you the details, so make sure you use an email address you can check regularly.

Step 3: Accept your offer

When you receive an offer of a place, log into the UCAS Hub and add your clearing choice to accept your offer to study with us.

Not applied through UCAS

If you haven't already applied, you can find a university place at Sheffield Hallam by using the clearing process. Here’s what you need for clearing and how it works in three simple steps.

Step 1: Call us

Call us on 0330 024 6390 when clearing opens. When you call up you’ll need a full list of your results, including your GCSE grades.

For some courses (e.g. health profession courses and teacher education), you will be required to have an interview before a decision is made.

If we make you an offer, we’ll email you the details, so make sure you use an email address you can check regularly.

Step 2: Fill in some forms

We’ll send you an application form and a questionnaire about your fee status, which you will need to fill in and email back to us.

You’ll also need to send us evidence of your qualifications.

Step 3: Accept your offer

Once we receive your completed forms and evidence of your qualifications, we’ll set you up with a UCAS record and confirm you have a place on UCAS.

UCAS will notify you once this is complete, and then you can access the UCAS Hub to view your offer.
