Personal details

Step 2: Applying

Your personal information will be sent to your chosen universities and colleges

Your title, gender, name and address and date of birth will be filled in automatically with the details provided when you registered.

Further personal details

You're asked for extra information so that the universities and colleges can decide what tuition fees you should be charged and what entitlements you might qualify for. They need to know your residential status, where/whether you will be looking for funding and/or sponsorship, and if you have any special needs or disabilities which they would need to consider.

As part of their duty of care to all applicants/existing students they will also need to know if you have any relevant criminal convictions. You are asked to tick a box if you have a relevant criminal conviction. If you don't, please leave the box blank.

Entering an email address

Your email address needs to be verified before you can send your application to us. When you enter your email address, we'll send you an email with instructions on what to do.

If you provide an email address, we can send emails when the status of your application has changed, eg when a university has sent us its decision. These emails won't list the actual changes or give any decisions; they will tell you to log in to the Track service to view any changes.

Your email address will be seen by UCAS and the universities and colleges, so please make sure that it does not cause offence.

Nominated access

You can choose to nominate someone, eg parent/guardian/adviser, who can discuss your application with us and the universities if you're unavailable.

This section of your application is not compulsory - you don't have to nominate anyone. If you do, you enter their name and their relationship to you.
