The Application Process!

How do you complete the application?

• Keep to the required format and within the specified word limit.
• Ensure you have a good introduction.
• This doesn’t have to be artistic – just start writing, BUT, spelling and grammar ARE important!
• Do your research and mention all the things you like and know about your chosen subject area – what interests you, what you don’t yet understand, how it will shape your future career pathway, what sort of skills you have already to prepare you.
• Write down all the interesting things about you – what you do at school (academic and extra-curricular), family holidays, part-time work, volunteering, interests etc.
• Make sure anything you say is relevant to the course and is backed up with evidence.
• Would you be happy discussing everything you have mentioned further at interview?

You may wish to consider the UK as a study destination and if so, you can make application via the UCAS system, or many institutions accept direct applications:

• Ensure you emphasize the reasons as to why you wish to pursue your higher education in the UK.
• If making application through the UCAS system, pick your five choices, but make sure you research them all well. http://www.swansea.ac.uk/undergraduate/apply/application-process/
