1. Find the course you want to study. When Clearing opens in July you'll be able to find a list of all courses available here. Do your research and find the right course for you.
2. Once Clearing is open you will be able to apply via our webform or over the phone. You will be asked to submit personal information such as name, address and contact details. You'll also need to submit your academic information such as exam results, English language qualifications and details of any relevant work experience to the course you're applying for.
3. Our admissions team will review your application and if you meet the necessary criteria they will contact you via email to offer you a place at Essex through Clearing.
4. You will then need to accept the offer by adding Essex as your Clearing choice on UCAS - you will be able to do this from 1pm (BST) on Thursday 15 August. If you're not in UCAS, we'll let you know in your offer email what to do next and how to accept your offer.
5. Our admissions team will then check your details. Subject to verification of the information you've provided during your application, our Admissions team will confirm your place. Now it's time to celebrate - congratulations!
6. Now you have confirmed your place at Essex, you can start applying for a Student Visa (where required), applying for accommodation, and preparing for your move to the UK.
