Your dream career is just a course away!
Once you’ve decided which course is right for you, the next step is to apply. There are two ways to do this: Apply direct or through UCAS. For details of how to apply, see below.
Apply direct
At University Centre Middlesbrough, you can apply to study a University course with us without going through UCAS. Applying direct is FREE and means you can cut out a lot of paperwork.
To apply direct, simply click here to view our courses and complete the online application form.
Once your application has been submitted, we will arrange for you to have an informal chat with the programme leader.
Apply through UCAS
If you would prefer, you can also apply to our full-time University programmes through UCAS. If your application is successful, our team will formally offer you a place via UCAS. Our programme leaders may also get in touch with you to have a chat about the programme.
Register your details
If you haven’t applied to University before, you will need to create and register an account with UCAS. Click here to visit the UCAS website and create an account.
Student Finance
If you’ve told UCAS you’ll need help paying for your course, your information will be shared with Student Finance England who will process your application.
Course Selection
You can apply for up to 5 courses on UCAS. You can find course UCAS codes on each individual course information page on this website.
Personal Statement
You will need to craft a personal statement to support your application. This is your opportunity to sell yourself and make your UCAS application stand out from the crowd. Tell us your future career ambitions and why you want to study at UCM. Click here for guidance on writing your personal statement.
Submit
Ask a former tutor, advisor, or professional to complete an academic reference that supports your application. You can then submit your application. This costs £28.50. Financial support to cover these costs may be available from Student Services dependent on your personal circumstances.
