For Oxbridge, dentistry, medicine, veterinary medicine or veterinary science applications, the deadline was 15 October Art and design courses may have alternative submission dates from above. Please clarify this with your tutors and UCAS. Can I apply to both Oxford and Cambridge universities? Unfortunately, you can only apply to either Oxford or Cambridge for your undergraduate degree so consider this before applying by 15 October. Will universities know where else I have applied to?
Other universities cannot initially see where you have applied to so you can make your university choices in UCAS without worry! Universities find out later on once you have accepted your offers or have no live choices available. After you submit your application it will be processed by UCAS and sent out to your chosen universities. Students sometimes feel that they need to say something dramatic to stand out from the crowd and be really memorable in their personal statement but this is not true.
Applying to Oxford is not like a talent show where you may only have a few seconds to make an impression. Tutors consider each application carefully on its individual merits, looking for evidence of your commitment and ability. If you use your personal statement to demonstrate your academic abilities and your engagement with your subject or subjects, then your application will be memorable for all the right reasons.
You may need two or three tries to get it right and it can take longer than you think, especially with the limited number of characters. It can be tricky to get in everything you want to mention, but don't spend too much time trying to make your personal statement completely perfect - it's only one of the things that the tutors will consider. A reference from a teacher or someone else who is qualified to comment on your academic ability is an essential part of your application.
Your application will be incomplete without a reference and we will not be able to consider it. Please refer to this guidance in addition to the information provided here.
We strongly recommend following the UCAS advice to publish relevant information about school closures and disruption to whole cohorts on a specifically created web page on your school website. You can then link to this webpage in your academic references to ensure that most of the reference word count can still be dedicated to the academic potential of your student. This is the section of the UCAS form where you list all your qualifications along with the grades you have already achieved and any standardised test scores.
You also need to list any educational qualifications you are currently working towards. Please list everything as the admissions tutors need to see the whole picture of your academic studies so far. It doesn't matter if you have taken a lot of qualifications, a few, or none, we ask you to tell us about them. Note: do not send us transcripts for the qualifications you've already taken; you will only need to produce certificates or transcripts if you are offered a place here.
However, if you are applying for a second undergraduate degree, you will need to send a transcript from your first degree separately, to the college that is considering your application.
You do not upload this as part of your UCAS form. For any future exams, whoever writes your academic reference must tell us how they think you will perform in them. These predictions help the admissions tutors understand your academic potential and will let them know if you are going to meet the admission requirements for your course.
We appreciate that many educational systems around the world do not usually predict a student's grades in this way; however without these predictions from your teacher we are unable to consider your application.
Using predicted grades means you can apply to study at Oxford before you have finished school or equivalent and you don't have to wait until all your exams are complete and your results are known. If you are made an offer of a place, it will be conditional on your achieving the required grades based on the entrance requirements for your course in any outstanding exams. If you have listed any exams or qualifications as not yet taken on your UCAS form, then you must get your teacher to provide predicted grades for them.
If you can't get predicted grades, then your only alternative is to wait until you have got the final results for all your exams and qualifications before applying to Oxford. Please remember that you can only apply to Oxford between early September and 15 October every year. If you have personal circumstances that you'd like to tell us about please include them in your personal statement, or ask your teacher to include the information in your reference.
If for any reason this is not appropriate, then please wait until you have had confirmation that your application has been received by a college and then contact them directly. This is likely to be around the end of October.
You can contact our Admissions Office for further information and advice if you're not sure what to include. Usually special circumstances are something that you as an individual have experienced, something that is unique to you. So we would not, for example, expect you to let us know about your school being closed due to COVID We are extremely aware of the widespread disruption to education during the pandemic and will be asking your academic referee to tell us how this has affected your year group.
Please see the tab Declaring your disability and read our Guidance for disabled applicants to find out about the support we offer our students. We are sympathetic to the fact that sometimes candidates under-perform at school or college because of extenuating circumstances. If you feel that your performance has been affected in this way please let us know.
You should let us have this information in your UCAS application as we need to receive this information before admissions decisions have been made. Information received after admissions decisions have been made will only be considered in exceptional circumstances and if this was not available earlier. Examples would include disruption caused by change of school or system, severe discontinuity of teachers but not if this was due to nationwide school closures due to COVID , bereavement, and debilitating illness.
We take care to treat each application individually and would always take such mitigating circumstances into account, if they are brought to our attention before admissions decisions have been made.
You could include this information in your personal statement or your teacher could mention this in their reference. If for any reason this is not possible, then we would advise you to contact the college you applied to or are assigned to if making an open application once you have had confirmation that your application has been received.
Whatever your particular circumstances, the earlier we know about your individual requirements, then the sooner we can begin to meet them. We are committed to making sure that all our students can benefit from the great opportunities at Oxford so please do tell us about any disability, whether seen or unseen, on your UCAS application. This should include any long-term illness, mental health condition, an autism spectrum condition or specific learning difficulty.
By telling us now, you will help us put in place any agreed support early and to make reasonable adjustments to facilitate your access to your course and our University. It will also mean that we can provide appropriate arrangements during the admissions process, so for any test or interview. While you do not need to include this information at this stage, we strongly recommend you do so in order to give us time to prepare and arrange suitable support.
See also our further Guidance for disabled applicants. This includes information on contacting our Disability Advisory Service and how to put in place any necessary arrangements for our admissions tests, if this is one of the admission requirements for your chosen course.
The application process for international students is exactly the same as for UK and EU students: i. UCAS is an independent organisation that handles all applications to study undergraduate degrees in the UK. The UCAS website also has guidance for international students. There is no separate application form for Oxford's undergraduate courses with the single exception of A Graduate Entry Medicine , and it is not possible to apply without completing a UCAS form.
