2023 entry application deadlines

For courses starting in 2023 (and for deferred applications), your application should be with us at UCAS by one of these dates – depending on what courses you apply for. If your completed application – including all your personal details and your academic reference – is submitted by the deadline, it is guaranteed to be considered.

15 October 2022 for 2023 entry at 18:00 (UK time) – any course at the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, or for most courses in medicine, veterinary medicine/science, and dentistry. You can add choices with a different deadline later, but don’t forget you can only have five choices in total.

25 January 2023 for 2023 entry at 18:00 (UK time) – for the majority of courses.

Some course providers require additional admissions tests to be taken alongside the UCAS application, and these may have a deadline. Find out more about these tests.

Check course information in the search tool to see which deadline applies to you at the application weblink below.

Apply as soon as possible: Student funding arrangements mean that as offers are made and places fill up, some courses may only have vacancies for students from certain locations. It’s therefore really important that you apply for your chosen courses by the appropriate deadlines mentioned above, as not all courses will have places for all students.

Start date: September 2023.

You have the option of completing a 3 year degree without placement/study year abroad. Alternatively, if you want to do a placement year/study abroad year, your degree will take you 4 years to complete.

This is a full-time course. Each year of your degree will involve you studying 6 modules, 3 modules per semester. Semester 1 runs from September to December each year and Semester 2 runs from late January to early May each year.

Class contact time of approximately 3 hours per week per module. However, extra seminars are often provided if students request additional support. Therefore, there will be a minimum of 9-10 hours teaching per week.

Normally, you will be required to be on campus 3 days per week during each semester, to attend lectures and seminars. Lectures and seminars are typically scheduled between 9.15am and 5.15pm Monday to Friday during each semester. However, in addition to this, you are expected to spend approximately 10 additional hours of independent study per module per week. Many students book study rooms on campus or meet in the library area to work together on assignments and lecture/seminar questions.
