Overview
Whether you're applying for a Foundation, Undergraduate or Postgraduate degree, we're here to help
Found a course that you'd like to apply for?
Undergraduate
Our Undergraduate courses offer you the opportunity to study an arts subject you love in a creative community, on a specialist campus. You can apply to study one of our 24 creative courses via UCAS, including direct entry application to second and third year.
How to apply
Before starting an application, make sure to read through our entry requirements for our courses below. You can also find out more about our English Language requirements here.
Step 1: Apply through UCAS
Our institution code is A66. All of our courses take place on one site, so we don’t have a campus code.
We’ll use your completed UCAS form to make decisions about your application. Make sure you include all of the qualifications that you have and are currently taking. You can also tell us about any work experience that you've done.
In your personal statement, we’d like to know more about why you're interested in the course, the key influences on your work and what you hope to do after your studies. There’s more advice in our personal statement guide here.
In exceptional circumstances, you may be able to make an online application to us if you're unable to apply via UCAS. Please contact us for more information: admissions@aub.ac.uk.
The UCAS deadline for applications is 15 January for entry the following September. This is the deadline for equal consideration, but you can apply at any time until 30 June. UCAS Clearing opens in July.
If you do apply after 1 January, you should be aware that places may be limited on our courses. If you require a visa, we advise you to get started on your application as soon as you can. You can read more about visas here.
Step 2: Track your Application
You can track the status of all your applications via UCAS Track.
Once we've received your application, we’ll send you an email with your login details for our online portal, MyApplication.
You can use this to monitor the progress of your application to AUB. We might contact you for more information, so keep checking your inbox for messages. We’ll send details of interviews, applicant days or requests for portfolios here too.
Contextual data: We don’t take contextual data into account when making a decision about your application. You can read more about contextual data here.
Transparency data: information on the number of applications, offers, registrations and attainment of different groups of AUB applicants and students is available here.
Step 3: Interviews, Portfolios and Applicant Days
Many of our courses ask to see a portfolio at interview. We've created guidelines outlining what we expect for each course – you can find these here.
We’ll invite you to interview via MyApplication. Interviews take place between November and April and we try to give you at least 10 days’ notice of the interview date.
If you have applied for BA (Hons) Acting or BA (Hons) Dance, you'll be invited to audition in the same way.
We understand that it isn’t possible for some applicants, especially those living outside the UK, to attend an interview. If this is the case, we’ll assess your application on your UCAS form and your portfolio. We’ll send you instructions on how to submit your portfolio via MyApplication (you don’t need to send us your portfolio until you hear from us).
If we have already made you an offer during one of our overseas visits, you will not need to attend a second interview or submit a portfolio. However, you'll need to submit an application to formalise this offer.
For the following courses, we may be able to make a decision on your application based on the information in your UCAS application:
- BA (Hons) Art and Design History
- BA (Hons) Costume
- BA (Hons) Performance Design and Film Costume
- BA (Hons) Creative Events Management
- BA (Hons) Creative Writing
- BA (Hons) Interior Architecture and Design
If you meet our entry requirements, we’ll make you an offer and invite you to come along to an Applicant Day. These take place from January to March and give you the opportunity to find out more about the course, meet the academic staff and have a tour of our campus.
If you're an Overseas student and can’t attend an Applicant Day, we may request a Skype interview.
If you apply with non-standard qualifications we'll request a portfolio of work before we can make an offer. We’ll be in touch if we need any further information.
Step 4: Accepting your offer
Once we've made a decision, we’ll update you via UCAS Track and MyApplication. We should be able to tell you about our decision within 10 working days. We’ll let you know if there's any delay.
Once you've heard from all of the universities, you’ll receive an email or a letter from UCAS, asking you to respond to your offers.
You’ll be able to go to UCAS Track to accept the offer you’d like to take up.
If you change your mind after you accept your offer, you can cancel your acceptance within the cancellation period of 14 days. You can find out more about this here.
UCAS will let you know the deadline to do this. If you miss this, UCAS will decline the offer on your behalf. If this happens, you’ll need to contact our Admissions team and UCAS asap.
Step 5: Getting your results
You must meet the conditions of your offer by 31 August to be able to take up your place – even if your offer is for deferred entry.
We receive most exam results electronically from UCAS. If your qualification is not listed by UCAS, or you're taking an IELTS or overseas qualification, you’ll need to send us your results.
We’ll need to see a scan or a photocopy of your official results slip to confirm your place.
If you haven’t quite met the conditions of you offer, we'll still consider you and we may still be able to confirm your place.
If you applied to us directly then you'll need to accept your offer via MyApplication.
Step 6: Coming to AUB
Once your place is confirmed, we’ll send you a confirmation letter and a Welcome Guide to the course.
We will keep in regular contact with you and send you information about accommodation, your visa application (if applicable) and enrolment.
