Documents you will need

  • Academic transcripts as proof of qualification (evidence of predicted grade if results are not yet available, then proof of the achieved grade).

How selection works

A UAL selection panel decides on the evidence in the application. If you hold offers for more than one UAL course, the award applies to the offer you accept.
