Definitely not, many courses will still be open to applications through to the 30th of June.

Don't let opportunities go. Act now.

As above, many courses will still be accepting applications - but most at 'top' Unis will now be closed - so you need to phone each of your intended Unis before you submit your UCAS application to check, as Unis can just close courses with no warning.

It's not too late to submit an application to university, many universities will be accepting applications through the UCAS cycle and Clearing into September for the 2025/26 intake.

Initially students get 5 choices in their UCAS application which they can apply for. We are now passed the equal consideration deadline which means for some courses applications are not guaranteed to be considered, so it is important to check availability. This can be done through UCAS or by contacting the university.

In July, Clearing will open which is another opportunity to apply for universities. Many will be accepting applications on Results Day when you have confirmed your grades.

There is some great support online for starting your application and personal statement if you've not already. University websites hold guides for applicants and course pages are a great way to learn more about the course. TSR is a good place for advice or to have you personal statement checked. If you are in college, there may be support available there as well.

Best of luck with your application!
