UK University Application Deadlines

Key dates for 2020 UK university entry

Before beginning your application it is important to familiarise yourself with key UCAS deadlines. Some universities (Cambridge and Oxford) and courses (medicine, veterinary medicine and dentistry) have much earlier deadlines and it is important you are fully aware of those which impact on your application.

Important UCAS Deadlines

All UCAS deadlines for courses in the UK can be found below, but these are two key dates to become familiar with in the UCAS application cycle.

  • 15 October 2019 - All courses at Cambridge and Oxford and most medicine, veterinary medicine and dentistry courses at all other institutions
  • 15 January 2020 - All other undergraduate courses for EU students
