For UK students, the normal application route for full-time study is online via the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS).

• If you are in full-time education, your school or college will help you register with UCAS and make your application; it will also supply your reference
• If you are returning to learning after a break or you are a mature student (over 21), you apply independently through UCAS and find your own referee
• If you are a mature student but still have contact with your old school/college, you can ask them if they will support your application and be your referee

Every course has its own UCAS course code; if your chosen course doesn鈥檛 have one yet, it is likely to be because it is a new course still awaiting its code. In these cases, please contact our Admissions team at admission@beds.ac.uk

For the 2024 applicant cycle, there is a flat fee of 拢27.50 for up to five course choices; for 2025 entry, the fee is 拢28.50 for up to five choices. For the 2025 cycle, the fee may be waived if you have been in receipt of free school meals at some point during your secondary education.

After applying, it鈥檚 possible you will be invited for an interview. If you have any dates you already know of when you won鈥檛 be available for interview, it鈥檚 an idea to include them on your UCAS application.

Timings and deadlines
