UCAS Deadline Reminder

Happy new year!

2025 has come to an end and a new year with fresh beginning has started. The start of a new year means that the UCAS deadline is fast approaching and if you haven’t submitted your application yet, this is a reminder for you to do so before Wednesday 14 January!

Whether you’re rushing last minute to write everything or if you’re nearly done, I've prepared a list of the main things needed for your UCAS application.

Personal statement: Double check you answered all the necessary questions, your passion, why you want to apply for this course and a little background about yourself, studies and achievements. You can use this resource for writing a strong personal statement if you’re writing one last minute.

References: Double check that your referee has completed their part, if they haven’t done so yet, chase it up immediately.

Your choices: make sure you’re satisfied with all your university choices and that you included plan a, b’s and c’s!


At last, proofread everything, you can create a checklist to tick off before submitting the application. Once you’ve submitted it, take a deep breath and celebrate this achievement 🥳

Good luck!
