Late Applications

You can still apply to RGU

It’s not too late to follow your dreams. Join us this September.

The equal consideration deadline for UCAS applications closed on the 31 January 2025, but if you have not applied by this date or have changed your mind about what university and/or course you want to study, don’t worry, you can still apply to join us this September. This is your future and we’ve got your back every step of the way.

What is equal consideration?

Equal consideration is where all applications received between September – 29 January are given full and equal consideration whether you applied early in September or right up until the UCAS application deadline. This means that if you apply after the deadline, universities and colleges do not have to consider your application as they will have already started allocating places. They may close courses for new applications if spaces have been filled by applications received before the deadline.
