Researching your uni choices and not sure where to start?
Here are some top tips from our student Sadie to help you decide:
✍️Visit open days and campus tours
Research your course in detail. (modules & assessment types
matter)
✍️Think beyond the course, accommodation, facilities and location are important too.
✍️Start early and don't panic, choose what's right for you, not your friends.

For applicants applying in the 2026 UCAS cycle, the deadline to guarantee your application is considered is 14 January 2026 at 6pm.

Courses may close after this date so your application may not be considered if there are no places available. At Northumbria most courses remain open for the full UCAS cycle but some courses may close after this date, these would typically be Professional Health courses like Midwifery or Physiotherapy so we recommend applying before the deadline where possible.
