International applications

If you are from a European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA) country, and you wish to apply for a full-time undergraduate course, you will need to apply through UCAS.

If you are applying for a pre-degree, part-time undergraduate or postgraduate course, you should apply directly to us using UCA’s online application form for your chosen course.

If you are applying for postgraduate research you should apply directly to us using the research proposal form.

Since September 2021 students from the EU/EEA are longer be eligible for home fee status or financial support, and will need a visa to study at UCA.

If you are applying for a pre-degree or postgraduate course, you should apply directly to us - visit the page of the course you've chosen and click the 'Apply Now' button. If you are applying for postgraduate research you should apply directly to us using the research proposal form.

If you are applying for a full-time undergraduate course and UCA is your only choice, please apply directly (as above).

The benefits of applying directly to us are:

• There is no application fee (up to £24 via UCAS).
• There’s no set deadline. We do however encourage you to apply as soon as possible so you have enough time to organise your student visa, if you need one, and to apply for a place in University accommodation.
• There are no 'declined by default' deadlines.
• We will process your application through UCAS on your behalf.
• You can track your application through our online ‘Applicant Portal’.

If you are applying to more than one university in the UK, then you should apply to us through UCAS.
