How to apply through UCAS

To apply for an undergraduate place at university you need to apply through UCAS (Universities and Colleges Admissions Service) who will then pass on your application to your chosen universities. 

You’ll be able to choose up to five courses, but remember that the same application form and personal statement will go to each choice. 

If you’re applying for Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary Science courses,  you can only choose up to four of those courses and one other.

You can only apply for Oxford or Cambridge, not both. 

The application form is on the UCAS website, under ‘Apply’.

 Bangor University's UCAS code: B06

When to apply

We advise you to apply as early as you can as we will start considering applications and making offers straight away. For 2022, the initial UCAS deadline for UK and EU students is Wednesday, 26 January 2022, however we welcome applications after this date. Those received between 26 January and 30 June will continue to be forwarded to universities by UCAS and will receive consideration where places are still available.

You’ll need to get your application in by October 15 if you’re applying to Oxbridge or any Medicine, Dentistry or Veterinary courses.

UCAS Personal Statement

The UCAS Personal Statement is a really important part of your application. This is where you get to persuade the university that they should accept you onto your chosen course. You only get 47 lines (500-550 words) to explain why you want to study the course and the skills or experience you have that are essential for university study.

To write a winning personal statement you must have a good understanding about the course and what you’ll be studying. Remember that you write only one personal statement for your five choices so make sure that the courses are similar, if not the same, and make sure that you don’t mention a specific course or university.
