Moving university's

I am currently studying primary education at Northumbria. I am a first year student but I am wondering about moving to York St John's for years 2 and 3. How do I go about doing this? And is it easy to transfer university

Contact the Uni you want to transfer to - but be realistic as this relies on total compatibility of courses, your current Uni grades, and there actually being spaces going into Year 2.

Hi Lydiamarie2000!

I'll send a quick email to our admissions team on your behalf to see how this would work and I'll get back to you as soon as they reply! Can I just ask if you have done any placement hours at a Primary School in your first year?

Best wishes,

Hi Lydiamarie2000,

Turns out we unfortunately don't accept transfers for our Primary Ed course - if you wanted to apply, you would be welcome to apply through the typical UCAS cycle and start from Year 1. So sorry! You can find more information here: https://www.yorksj.ac.uk/study/undergraduate/apply-for-undergraduate-degree/transferring-to-york-st-john-university

Best of luck with everything,

Hello, I am going into my first year starting this year. As it is too late to move to York St John now! So I have not currently done any placement but I believe there is a 2 week placement in November and a placement from the end of April next year to June!
