Missed the UCAS deadline? There’s still time to apply

We’ve extended our equal consideration deadline to 31 January 2026.

If you didn’t quite hit the UCAS deadline on 14 January, good news. We have extended the equal consideration deadline to 31 January 2026. Applications submitted by this date will be reviewed on the same basis as those received by the original UCAS deadline.

Applications submitted after this date are considered after other applications have been processed.

What are the benefits of applying by the extended equal consideration deadline?

  • Guaranteed consideration for your chosen course.*
  • More availability when booking your interview slot.
  • Receive an offer sooner – the earlier you apply, the faster we can process your application.
  • Be one of the first to confirm your place for September 2026.
  • More time to organise your finances and accommodation.
  • As an offer holder, you will also gain access to exclusive content, webinars and events.

So what are you waiting for? Submit your UCAS application by 31 January and take the next step towards starting your life in music.

If you missed the January equal consideration deadline, you can still apply. In fact, all potential students can apply late, including EU and international students.

On 26th February 2026, UCAS Extra opens, giving you another chance to secure a place at MetStudios. If you applied with five choices and weren’t accepted, or if you’ve turned down the offers you received, UCAS Extra lets you add one more choice. But remember, once you use Extra to add a new choice, you can’t go back to your original five. Don’t miss out, UCAS Extra runs until 4th July 2026!

If you don’t hold any offers after 2nd July, you will be able to add an additional choice using Clearing.

Please note that on the UCAS website, our undergraduate courses are listed under our partner, BIMM University.

UCAS Process

UCAS Process

When you apply to UCAS, you’ll be asked to submit up to five options for the courses you’d like to study at the institutes you’d like to join.

You’ll find all our courses listed on the UCAS website, along with our course and campus codes.

To make an application through UCAS, you’ll need to go to www.ucas.com and register before you can submit any choices.

If you’ve used all five choices on your application, and you’re not holding any offers, you could still find a place using UCAS’ free service, Extra. Find our more about Extra on the UCAS website.

Your UCAS application will need to include the following:

    • A list of all your academic achievements, including any pending qualifications
    • A Personal Statement (maximum 4,000 characters)
    • A reference from either a teacher, tutor or employer

For more information about UCAS submissions, download our handy application and personal statement guides.

Here are our available courses with their corresponding UCAS code. Please note that on the UCAS website, all our undergraduate courses are listed under our partner, BIMM University (Institution Code B39):

*This course is awarded by BIMM University

 

When we receive your UCAS application, we’ll invite you for an interview. This will be a Zoom interview for your convenience. If you meet the entry criteria for the course you’ve selected, we’ll offer you a conditional offer.

If you’ve applied via UCAS, you’ll be invited to attend an interview. A Zoom interview will be scheduled for all applicants.

If your interview is successful, we’ll provide you with a ‘conditional offer’ (which means it’s pending until we receive your exam results and certificates) or an ‘unconditional offer’ (meaning you’ve met the entry criteria for the course and don’t need to give us any additional information).

Your offer will be announced via UCAS’s ‘Hub’ facility.

Once you have submitted and paid for your UCAS application, you will then be able to view any changes or updates made to your application via UCAS Hub. This is where you will be able to view any offers that you may have received and any conditions associated with this.

Your offer and conditions

If you are made a conditional offer on UCAS, it is important that you take the time to read the conditions of your offer carefully, as an offer from MetStudios include any or all of the following- each of these will need to be met/evidenced before your offer can be made Unconditional:

  • Academic qualifications- Level 3 (such as A Levels) and Level 2 (such as GCSE English)
  • Passing an RPP Submission- this will be set for mature applicants in lieu of Level 3 qualifications or if Level 3 attainment does not meet requirements
  • Passing RPL (Year 2 entry only)
  • Attending an audition/interview and receiving a recommendation
  • Copy of your UK passport
  • Evidence of Immigration Status
  • A reference- if you did not provide one on your UCAS application

Accepting your offer

You will only be able to accept your offer once you have received decisions from all of your choices. If you have applied to more than one institution and would like to accept an offer made by MetStudios, but are unable to, then it is likely that you are waiting for a decision from another choice and it may be worth contacting them directly.

You do not have to have met the conditions of your offer before you accept it. Your offer will remain Conditional Firm (CF) until you have provided evidence that all conditions have been met. Often, this will be once you receive your exam results.

Depending on when you receive all of your offers, you will have a deadline to respond. This information will be available to view on your UCAS Hub.

There are a number of important dates to be aware of, if you are applying for an undergraduate course through UCAS. These deadlines are set by UCAS for all applicants using the service and we are unable to amend these.

You will receive correspondence from UCAS to remind you of any important dates and will also be able to view and deadlines that you might have, by logging into your UCAS Hub.

Some of the most important dates for you to be aware of for the 2024/25 cycle, are:

  • 14th January 2026 – UCAS Equal Consideration deadline. This is the deadline for applications to be considered ‘on-time’ and will guarantee that your application is considered before any applications received after this date.
  • 3rd June 2026 – If you received replies from all of your choices by 14th May 2024, then you will need to reply to your offers by this date. If you miss this deadline then your applications will Decline by Default (DBD).
  • 30th June 2026 – UCAS main scheme closes for new applicants. All new applications received after this point will be made through Clearing.
  • 2nd July 2026 – Clearing opens for applicants who did not apply during the main scheme
  • 22nd July 2026 – If you received replies from all of your choices by 17th July 2024, then you will need to reply to your offers by this date. If you miss this deadline then your applications will Decline by Default (DBD).
