As well as the tailored information provided via the links above, remember to check out the subject-specific information - including the entry requirements - of the course (s) you are interested in. A good place to start is with the University's course search. If you have never been to university before, then the filter you should use on the course search is the one labelled 'undergraduate'.
Undergraduate courses are specifically designed for people who do not yet have a degree, and you can apply for these courses via UCAS.
The University takes a range of information into consideration when making admissions decisions for undergraduate courses. If you meet certain criteria, you may be eligible for a contextual offer.
