Application deadlines for the January intake course closure. Please note that due to high demand some courses may close earlier, this information will be available on the relevant course page.

Please ensure you pay your deposit, or if you are a sponsored student, you have uploaded a copy of your sponsor letter or notified us of your sponsorship, by the 21 November. We may not be able to accept payments received after this date. See further details on payment.

All payments should now be made directly from your own or parent’s account and not through any other third party as third party payments will now not be accepted unless approved in advance.

Please note that some of our courses have strict capacity. Due to this, we may have to close deposits prior to published deadlines. To ensure you don’t pay the deposit after this time, we will notify you of the situation and withdraw your place of study.

Our free UWE English Language test dates will begin in October.

If you have a condition requiring evidence of English language ability as part of your offer, you may be eligible for a free UWE English Language Placement Test.

23 November will be the last opportunity to sit this test.

Please note that places are limited. For further information please email the International team at international@uwe.ac.uk.

For students travelling from non-low risk countries classified by UKVI, you will need to provide a bank statement as part of your visa application.

To make sure you meet the visa requirements, we will need to check this before we issue your CAS. You will need to have uploaded the bank statement through your welcome portal ready for our admissions team to check no later than the 2 December.

We recommend that you make sure you have the required funds in the bank no later than the 4 November so that they meet the requirements set by the UKVI.

This is the latest date for CAS to be issued. After this we will only be able to issue in exceptional circumstances due to visa turnaround times.

You will receive your MyUWE login once your CAS has been issued. You must complete online registration before can you begin on Starting Block.

Please note: If you are not able to arrive ready for face-to-face lectures by the start date we will not be able to extend this, you will either need to defer your place or withdraw and request a refund.

There are courses that sit outside of these term dates, individual start dates will be available shortly.
