UCAS APPLICATIONS TO UK UNIVERSITIES
WHAT IS UCAS
UCAS stands for Universities and Colleges Application Service and acts as the "middleman" between you and the UK Based Institutions you are applying to.
You can apply to upto 5 Universities and UCAS will then send your application to your 5 choices and inform you of whether you have an offer via UCAS Track and by sending you updates through the post.
You will need to apply via UCAS to most UK Universities, although a few may accept direct applications. Please contact PTC for a list of Universities which also accept direct applications.
For more information on UCAS, please visit their website
