What happens after I’ve applied?
UCL Admissions will get in touch as soon as possible with a decision about acceptance. If they have any queries regarding your application – for example about grades or prerequisites – they will contact you. If you are accepted you will be sent an offer letter and a reply slip. Once you’ve accepted your offer and confirmed that you will be attending UCL, more information will be sent about how to apply for student accommodation, and about visas if this is applicable. Pre-arrival information, including details of the orientation programme, can be found at www.ucl.ac.uk/iss/orientation from July.
