UCAS and such: very important info!

Good morning SMSAnians, 

Just to officially announce that we do not accept anymore UCAS applications and is officially closed. However, we will announce another deadline after the A level exams results are out in March (not long now!)

Below is an excerpt of information posted on UCAS:

International applicants
If your applicants are applying from outside the UK or EU, many universities and colleges will consider their application as long as it is received at UCAS by 30 June 2014. This does not apply to applications for the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, courses in medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine or veterinary science. For all of these, applicants must apply by 15 October 2013.

Universities and colleges do not guarantee to consider applications they receive after 15 January 2014, and some popular courses may not have vacancies after that date. Advise your applicants to check with individual universities and colleges. They are advised to apply as early as possible.

We hope this is crystal clear to everyone who have applied to UCAS and are waiting for results to be released to apply. Since we encounter several difficulties and 'challenges' from students in the last few weeks, we hope that you have prepared your personal statements early, willing to come to school to meet us or GP tutors and not make demands as if you're a big shot.

This is also to announce that ALL students who wish to apply to HECAS (Scholarship, UBD, ITB and Brunei Politeknik) should prepare ALL your academic and ECA certificates (at least 4 sets) to be sent to the school's clerks; office to be stamped and signed, you will need all this when you apply. For a sample of documents, it is pasted at the clerks office. Again, don't leave this to the last minute and expect it to be ready immediately. Once the PreU1 students come into SMSA, your previous tutors will not have time to entertain to you. Don't be lazy and make up excuses that you're not able to spend 5-10 minutes to school to prepare your documents.

There will be several events coming up that may interest you especially higher education so stay tuned and for any queries do contact us: smsacareers@hotmail.com

Miss UK
