Your future starts here

All 2027 undergraduate courses are displayed on the UCAS website as well as being available to view on UEA course search. The application deadline for medicine is 15 October 2026, and for all other undergraduate courses the equal consideration date for applications is 13 January 2027. After this date, you can still apply but universities do not guarantee to consider applications received after this date, and some courses may not still have vacancies.

How to Apply

All applications for full-time undergraduate courses at UEA must be made through UCAS (the UK's universities and colleges admissions service), regardless of whether you are applying from the UK or from overseas.

If you have not yet submitted your UCAS application you can create or log in to your UCAS account to finalise your choices.

If you apply through UCAS before the 13 January 2027 deadline and either have not been made any offers, changed your mind, or declined any offers received - you may be able to apply through UCAS Extra. UCAS Extra is a free service - available between 25 February and 3 July. If Extra is available to you, it will show up as an option when you sign in to track your application.
