How to apply for advanced entry

  • When submitting an application through UCAS, you need to change the point of entry to either 2 (Year 2) or 3 (Year 3), as applicable
  • Once we have received your application, we will ask you to provide a transcript/list of units from your previous institution
  • The transcript/list and your application will then be sent to the course academic for a comparison
  • They will confirm if your previous units of study are similar enough to our own course for you to be offered a place through advanced entry
  • The deadline to apply for advanced entry via UCAS is usually mid/late January
