The Process

Applying for Undergraduate Courses

Applications are made only through UCAS (only 1 application can be made in an academic year).

It is an online application method.

One can apply to 5 different Universities on the same application form.

A fee of £ 19 is charged by UCAS to process applications and £ 5 if applying to just one University.

Final Deadline:
• Art and Design - 24th March
• Oxford / Cambridge -15th October
• Other Programs - 1st Deadline - 15th Jan : 2nd & Final Deadline - 30th June

Sandwich and Foundation Programs Sandwich programs are made up of combination of periods of study and time spent in industry. So the course duration extends to 4 years instead of the usual 3 years.

Foundation programes are of 1 year duration and are generally tailored for students as an alternative route to bridge between one own qualification and that which is required for entry for a degree program in a university / college.

Please note that it is advisable to meet the 1st deadline which is 15th Jan.

Students are strongly advised to apply sooner as the application process may take time due to Universities getting an overwhelming number of applications.

Applying for Post Graduate Programs

Application forms available at Edwise offices free of cost.

One can apply to numerous Universities

Very few Universities charge an application process fee.

Deadlines

Certain universities have deadlines

Most Universities do not have deadlines but it is advised to apply at least 6/8 months in advance (especially if applying to a Popular University).
