Advice on applying to Strathclyde if you have a disability.
Most of our courses make offers based on your UCAS application. However some might ask you to attend an interview or for a portfolio of work. If this is the case, it will be stated in the prospectus entry requirements.
If you apply for a course where an interview is required, the department will write to you with details of the interview process and the place, date and time of your appointment. If you’re not based in the UK the interview will be conducted by telephone if possible.
Depending in your qualifications, you might be able to apply directly to Year 2 - or even Year 3 - of a course. Speak to the named contact for your course if you want to discuss this.
