We continue to welcome applications to the majority of our courses regardless of where you are from or where you live and we are doing everything we can to limit any impact coronavirus may have on applicants to study at City.
We are planning for our campus to be open to all students for the start of the new academic year in September 2021 and we have published our plans for education in the 2021-22 academic year, which can be found on our pages for students joining City in 2021.
Academic qualifications
We appreciate the pandemic has had a significant impact on many people, including those intending to apply to University. We will continue to look to reduce the barriers our applicants face, so we are able to offer an admissions service that is helpful, consistent and fair.
There is still a level of uncertainty around examinations and assessments which are due to take place in 2021. We will ensure that we provide the information, advice and guidance that our applicants need.
And we will continue to show an appropriate level of flexibility when we receive results from applicants. We welcome further correspondence from applicants who wish to provide more information about their own circumstances. However, we would like to remind applicants that it is the job of exam boards to compensate for extenuating circumstances in their assessment of students.
Deadlines and procedures
Schools and Departments will outline the details of any relevant deadlines and procedures to you when you submit your application. Some of these deadlines will vary by course, so we strongly advise you to read the detail in our emails and check the relevant course page on the university website for specifics.
We are closely monitoring changes being made by government, exam boards and organisations like UCAS. If there are any large-scale changes made by organisations like this, we may have to amend our own deadlines. If this happens, we will be in touch with all applicants directly.
