Deadlines for UCAS applications

In my last post, I asked students to start checking their desired universities and their application deadlines. I this post, I will talk about the deadlines of UCAS applications. There are two deadlines - 15 October 2018 - for   any course at the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, or for most courses in medicine, veterinary medicine/science, and dentistry.

For International students -  15th October deadline is usually inflexible, but students should not worry if they miss the January deadline.
