The Official University of the Arts London 2025 Applicant Thread



Hi :hi:

This is the thread for people who are thinking of applying to UAL for 2025!

Meet and chat to other people applying here.

Here are a few suggested opening questions, but ask whatever you want regarding UAL.

1) What A Levels are you doing (or other eligible qualifications)?
2) What course at UAL do you have your eyes on? And why?
3) What grades did you get/are you predicted to get at GCSE and Sixth Form?
4) Why UAL specifically?
5) Which admissions tests do you have to sit if any, and when will you start preparing for them?
6) Will you be attending any Open Days?
7) How are you feeling about starting University?
8) Other unis you're interested in?

You can find a directory linking to all of the other university applicant threads here.

Update: Finally got an offer for journalism (grades BCC) some time last week! But for some reason I didn't get a notification so I only saw the email today!

Anyone else doing Journalism or going to LCC?
