Securing your place

University Direct supports you to secure your preferred course and university. In the UK, this process involves completing a UCAS application form, which requires you to submit a personal statement and for some courses attend an interview.

  1. Skype calls to discuss the application process and personal statement
  2. Skype and written support to help the client develop the best possible application

  3. Information and advice about moving to the UK and living in the different university cities
