When is the UCAS deadline for university applications 2025?
Applications will need to be sent to UCAS on time to secure your place for September. If you're unsure how to do this or when the deadline is, look no further. The UCAS website explains: 'For courses starting in 2025 (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. 'If you're applying through your school/college, please check their deadline, and follow this to get your application in on time. 'This gives them enough time to read your application, check you've entered your qualifications correctly, write and attach your reference, and submit your application to us.' A Level results day takes place on Thursday, August 14 and the final deadline for entry applications for the 2025 courses is 6pm on Wednesday, September 24. The final date to release your application to Clearing is Monday, October 20.

How can I appeal my A-level results in England after results day? Missing the main deadline doesn't mean your chances of going to university are over. UCAS explains: 'If you don't meet the main application deadline, you can still apply for many courses. 'We recommend you ask the universities whether they have vacancies first – especially for courses with a October 15 deadline, as it's unusual for them to consider late applications because their courses are really competitive.'
