UCAS key dates

We highlight the key dates you need to keep an eye out for after you've submitted your university application through UCAS.

The UCAS deadline is approaching. If you're gearing up to submit your application - or if you already have - there are a few important dates to take note of after submission. Scroll on to see when they are.

Let’s talk deadlines

The UCAS deadline changes every year, usually by a day or two, but it’s always at the end of January. If you're applying to uni this year, then you hopefully know that the deadline for submitting your application to UCAS is 29 January 2025.

We definitely encourage applicants to meet the January deadline, if only for peace of mind! But we know life happens, so it might not always be possible. If you've not submitted your UCAS application yet, don't worry - we've got loads of information on things like choosing the right course, how to register on UCAS, and writing your personal statement to help you meet the deadline.

Key dates

Once you've submitted your application, it's time to celebrate the milestone and then wait for updates. After the deadline has passed, there are some dates to keep in mind that relate to any offers you might receive from your chosen unis.

Take a look at the table below to familiarise yourself with those dates.
