- Some of our courses fill up before UCAS Extra begins, but we encourage you to get in touch to check if there are vacancies on your preferred course before you apply.

Top tips
Whether you're a UK, EU or international student:
- You don't need to use UCAS Extra if you did not use all your choices in your initial application. You can just sign in to your application and add another choice, as long as you're applying before 30 June and you’ve not accepted or declined any offers.
If you submitted your applications through UCAS and you used up all five of your choices you can add more choices one at a time if:
- You've received decisions from all five course providers you applied to
- You're not holding any offers — either you weren't accepted, or you decided to decline any offers you received
