Applying to study in the UK can be tricky and confusing when doing things on your own. Take all of the stress out of the process by using Across the Pond’s free expertise and guidance. To help you on your way here are some things to be aware of:
APPLICATION DEADLINES FOR ADMISSION TO UK UNIVERSITIES
In the UK, admissions are mainly on a rolling basis – meaning it is "first come, first served" until the programme is filled. We therefore recommend that you apply as early as you can, and preferably before Christmas if you want to start your studies the following autumn. Exceptions: Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary Sciences as well as all courses at the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge, and also selected courses at master's level. Read more about the time of year you should apply to have the greatest chance of being granted admission.
HOW TO CHOOSE WHAT TO STUDY AND WHICH UNIVERSITY
Choosing what to study and which university to go to can be a very difficult process, especially when you may not be able to go and visit to find out which option you like best. Our advisors regularly visit the universities and help hundreds of students apply to a wide range of subjects every single year. They will be able to help you determine which universities and courses are best for you based on your academic background and the universities' minimum requirements, as well as your wishes and needs for what you would like your study experience to look like and cost.
HOW TO APPLY TO STUDY IN THE UK
We make it very easy for you! We have our own application form where you fill in your information and upload your application documents. We check that everything has been entered correctly before the application is submitted and that way you do not have to worry that you have made any mistakes that may result in you not being accepted.
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO APPLY FOR STUDIES IN THE UK?
To apply for studies at UK universities you need:
- One academic letter of recommendation if you are applying for undergraduate studies, and often two if you are applying for Master’s degree programmes. We have advice and tips that you can give to the person who will be writing this for you, so that together we ensure that they include all the information the UK universities are looking for. For postgraduate applicants you may also be required to submit your CV. Please note that how to write a CV for UK universities may differ from how they are expected to be written in your home country.
- Preliminary grades or final diploma (final diploma will be sent as soon as you have received it).
- Personal Statement. It is very important that it is you who has written your personal statement, but we will help you with what is important to include (or not include!) based on what and where you are hoping to study, in addition to proofreading it for you. This is a very important part of the application and whether or not you get in may be decided based on this statement. Some universities and courses have additional requirements and expectations in terms of what they want to see here and it is very important that you adhere to these indications. That's why we spend a lot of time making your personal statement as good as it can be.
- Note: Some courses will also require an audition, portfolio and other admissions tests.
DOES IT COST ANYTHING TO APPLY TO UK UNIVERSITIES?
When applying for undergraduate programmes, an application fee is required which is paid to the admissions service. In addition, some universities charge an application fee for some of the Master’s programmes they offer. These application fees are payable directly to the University or the University and Colleges Admissions Service and not to us. We will never ask for any payment or card information from you and all help from us is free of charge.
Some universities will require a deposit to secure your study place after you have been granted admission, this will later be deducted from the tuition fee. After you have been granted admission and your place has been confirmed, you will have to pay a fee to apply for a student visa in order to access healthcare in the UK during your studies. If you wish to live in the universities’ student housing you must apply to be allocated a room before the housing application deadline and once this has been processed you are often required to pay deposit to secure the accommodation. When you eventually enrol in the university, you will pay the tuition fee. Prices in the UK vary greatly and if you have any questions about the cost of studying in the UK, please get in touch. We are happy to help you find affordable options!

We will walk you through each step of the application process and help you with everything you need to consider before deciding whether or not you want to apply to study in the UK. If you choose to complete an application we will help you with absolutely everything from start to finish.

I am happy I made the decision to study abroad
My name is Debbie and I currently do my Masters degree at the University of York, studying Conflict, Governance and Development.
Across the Pond was of great help through my entire process; first, by helping me choose a University suited to my interests; then, by being able to apply to the different universities through their website, making it easier and faster; finally, by supporting me through the process of getting ready to arrive to the UK, with topics such as visa documents, finding accommodation, etc. They also helped me apply for a CONAHCYT scholarship, which I got. I am very grateful to Across the Pond for making it easier for me, since the process in itself is quite long and complicated, but with their company I didn’t struggle as much.
Regarding my experience in the UK, it has been quite good. I had been here a few times before and I have experience studying and working in English, so I did not have any problems with that. However, it is quite difficult to get used to a different routine, different habits, lack of sun, lots of rain. It is important to find a good support system in the new place that you find yourself in; it is especially useful to find international friends, since they are the ones who understand what you’re going through. I have friends from Malaysia, Korea, Colombia, Norway, Hong Kong, among many other countries. We like to go out to pubs, to travel to small cities near York and to play board games.
Finally, I am very satisfied with my decision to study at the University of York. It is a very good school with a good level of education, and they are extremely accommodating to international students, organizing several trips for us and being open to any questions we have about any sort of topic. There are very good and cheap options for accommodations on campus as well, and I live on a private student accommodation outside campus, which is also a good option if you do not find space on the ones on campus. York is a very small city and nothing is really that far from the school, so there is no problem about that.
Overall, my experience in the United Kingdom, in the University of York and with Across the Pond have been very fulfilling and I am happy I made the decision to study abroad. If you are interested in studying in the United Kingdom, definitely contact Across the Pond and consider doing so in the University of York.
Cheers!
- Debbie

Applying to study in the UK can be tricky and confusing when doing things on your own. Take all of the stress out of the process by using Across the Pond’s free expertise and guidance. To help you on your way here are some things to be aware of:
APPLICATION DEADLINES FOR ADMISSION TO UK UNIVERSITIES
In the UK, admissions are mainly on a rolling basis – meaning it is "first come, first served" until the programme is filled. We therefore recommend that you apply as early as you can, and preferably before Christmas if you want to start your studies the following autumn. Exceptions: Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary Sciences as well as all courses at the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge, and also selected courses at master's level. Read more about the time of year you should apply to have the greatest chance of being granted admission.
HOW TO CHOOSE WHAT TO STUDY AND WHICH UNIVERSITY
Choosing what to study and which university to go to can be a very difficult process, especially when you may not be able to go and visit to find out which option you like best. Our advisors regularly visit the universities and help hundreds of students apply to a wide range of subjects every single year. They will be able to help you determine which universities and courses are best for you based on your academic background and the universities' minimum requirements, as well as your wishes and needs for what you would like your study experience to look like and cost.
HOW TO APPLY TO STUDY IN THE UK
We make it very easy for you! We have our own application form where you fill in your information and upload your application documents. We check that everything has been entered correctly before the application is submitted and that way you do not have to worry that you have made any mistakes that may result in you not being accepted.
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO APPLY FOR STUDIES IN THE UK?
To apply for studies at UK universities you need:
- One academic letter of recommendation if you are applying for undergraduate studies, and often two if you are applying for Master’s degree programmes. We have advice and tips that you can give to the person who will be writing this for you, so that together we ensure that they include all the information the UK universities are looking for. For postgraduate applicants you may also be required to submit your CV. Please note that how to write a CV for UK universities may differ from how they are expected to be written in your home country.
- Preliminary grades or final diploma (final diploma will be sent as soon as you have received it).
- Personal Statement. It is very important that it is you who has written your personal statement, but we will help you with what is important to include (or not include!) based on what and where you are hoping to study, in addition to proofreading it for you. This is a very important part of the application and whether or not you get in may be decided based on this statement. Some universities and courses have additional requirements and expectations in terms of what they want to see here and it is very important that you adhere to these indications. That's why we spend a lot of time making your personal statement as good as it can be.
- Note: Some courses will also require an audition, portfolio and other admissions tests.
DOES IT COST ANYTHING TO APPLY TO UK UNIVERSITIES?
When applying for undergraduate programmes, an application fee is required which is paid to the admissions service. In addition, some universities charge an application fee for some of the Master’s programmes they offer. These application fees are payable directly to the University or the University and Colleges Admissions Service and not to us. We will never ask for any payment or card information from you and all help from us is free of charge.
Some universities will require a deposit to secure your study place after you have been granted admission, this will later be deducted from the tuition fee. After you have been granted admission and your place has been confirmed, you will have to pay a fee to apply for a student visa in order to access healthcare in the UK during your studies. If you wish to live in the universities’ student housing you must apply to be allocated a room before the housing application deadline and once this has been processed you are often required to pay deposit to secure the accommodation. When you eventually enrol in the university, you will pay the tuition fee. Prices in the UK vary greatly and if you have any questions about the cost of studying in the UK, please get in touch.
