Use the personal statement toolÌýto help write and receive feedback on your personal statement draft.

You will be asked to provide your personal details, home address and to confirm your residency status. As part of confirming your identity, you must provide an accepted form of photographic identification - usually a valid passport. If you are not a UK, EU/EEA national you must also provide visa documentation to confirm you have valid leave to remain in the UK.

We ask you to upload a scan of your photographic identification.ÌýPlease see below for accepted proof of identity.

Please note: Section 14 of the Terms and Conditions of Study at ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú, University of London requires your registered name(s) (as listed on your identity documentation), to be used on your student record. This includes middle names, and will be the name that appears on your final award certificate. If your name has changed since you were awarded previous qualifications needed for entry, you will be asked to provide evidence of their name change. e.g. a marriage certificate, deed poll documentation or statutory declaration.

You will be asked about your current studies, if any, and your previous qualifications. You will also be asked to upload certificates or transcripts of your previous qualifications, where relevant.

If English is not your first language, you will be asked to provide evidence of your English proficiency. If you have not yet taken an English test, please continue with your application and you will be asked to upload the English test results prior to being invited to enrol.ÌýPlease check ourÌýapproved English language tests and qualifications.

Please have your employment history to hand, with a brief overview of your responsibilities in each job or role. You may take these from your CV. ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú values all your skills and experiences, not only your academic qualifications, so this information is important for your application. We also ask you to list relevant professional qualifications or training courses.

This is an optional section for students who are being sponsored (for example, by their employer)Ìýor applying for a scholarship or grant. You do not need to complete this section if you will be applying for a student loan through Student Finance England, or if you are funding the course yourself.

You will be asked to write a personal statement that describes your academic abilities and your commitment to succeeding on the course you are applying for. You should aim to write an engaging, concise and well-structured statement:

• The purpose of the personal statement is to demonstrate that you have the intellectual ability and the commitment to be a successful student on the course that you're applying for. You should give examples of where you can demonstrate success, whether that's academic or in the workplace. Keep the examples factual, and try to relate them to the course and the skills required to be a successful student.
• Some students are afraid of coming across as boasting when they talk about their achievements. Others have concerns that their achievements are not impressive enough. Don’t let either worry to put you off applying. Show your achievements in the best possible light. We want to see your potential in your application, we don’t expect you to be a complete student at this stage.Ìý
• If you have an active interest in the subject you are applying for then mention them here. For example, perhaps you have attended free lectures and events; you regularly make visits to places or read certain publications. Maybe you have had a long-standingÌýinterest in the subject and you want to take it to the next level. This is your opportunity to show how you have been engaging in the subject you wish to study.Ìý
• If you are applying for a 4-year part-time undergraduate degree, your application will be direct to ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú. As our classes take place in the evening, ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú is different to other universities. Our Admission Tutors will be looking for indications that you have considered how you will be able to study successfully. You could, therefore,Ìýstate why you are choosing to study in the evening. For example, you may be working or have other commitments during the day and the evening model allows you to continue with your work.Ìý
• If you wish to study a postgraduate course in a different subject area to that you studied as an undergraduate, first look at the entry requirements for the course that you're interested in, as some courses have more specific requirements than others. Our admission tutors will be looking at your whole application, and your professional experience will be considered alongside your previous studies. Use your personal statement to highlight how your professional experience or your personal interests may relate to the new subject area that you wish to study.Ìý
• Get help from our personal statement tool.Ìý

Some courses may require a reference who can talk about your suitability for the course you are applying for. You will be contacted if your course requires a reference.

Referees should comment on your study and analytical skills, subject-specific knowledge and skills, and readiness for degree-level study in your chosen subject.

Ideally, at least one of your referees should be someone who knows your academic or written work well, such as a previous tutor. However, many of our students completed their undergraduate degree many years ago and have lost touch with their tutors. If this is the case, then we recommend that you contact the school that offers your course to request to use an alternative referee, such as an employer or former employer, or someone you’ve worked with in a voluntary capacity. Referees should comment on your study and analytical skills, subject-specific knowledge and skills, and readiness for degree-level study in your chosen subject.

The information collected on this page of the application form will not have any influence on your application. It is used purely for statistical and monitoring purposes, and we are required to collect it.

It is, of course, your choice what you include in the personal statement. For example, many mature students who struggled at school have since been diagnosed as dyslexicÌýand they would be able to outline this in their personal statement, should they wish to do so.

If we know from an early stage that you may require support for a disability, we can discuss it with you to make sure that we provide the support required. We encourage you toÌýcontact our disability teamÌýduring the application process, rather than waiting until the start of term.

2026 entry: Applications close 29 September.

We recommend that you apply as early as possibleÌýand at least six weeks before the start of term.ÌýWe try to give equal consideration to all applications received before the end of May (for autumn start courses).
