UNDERGRADUATES: You can apply to study at Bangor directly by using the online application form or through UCAS (Universities and Colleges Admissions Service.)

MASTERS: The University will accept applications throughout the year, but we would generally advise that you send in your application form by the end of June (for September intake) or the end of October (for January intake) to ensure that you have time to make any funding and/or accommodation arrangements, and for documents such as transcripts and references to be obtained if not submitted with the application. This will also give you more time to meet any conditions we may potentially attach to an offer (e.g. taking an IELTS Test to meet the English Language requirement).

PhD: You can apply at any time of the year. It is possible to start a PhD degree at any point in the year at most academic Schools, subject to agreement with the supervisor.

DEADLINES:
Deadline varies depending on whether you're an undergraduate (UCAS deadlines 15 January, 24 March and 15 October), taught masters (end of June for September intake or end of October for January intake) or PhD (rolling all year round)
