We also have specific requirements relating to the International Baccalaureate and Access courses, and standard offers for other internationally recognized qualifications speak to the Recruitment Office for more information. We also don’t accept General Studies as one of the three A Levels upon which we would base our offer, so if you are taking A Level General Studies you will need to be taking three other A Levels too. For instance, given the intense focus on literature in English at Southampton, we don’t accept only English Language at A Level you need to be doing either English Literature A Level or English Language and Literature (these can of course be in addition to an English Language A Level). Make sure that you are taking the right subjects.
Aim to get your application in well before the UCAS deadline.Ĭheck the course requirements: every year we have to reject a few students who haven't done this. S tart early: although we try to consider good applications received at any date, late submission is not a good idea for a subject as popular as English. But don't forget to keep a copy of your statement - you may find it helpful if you are called to interview. Remember that in high-demand subjects like English, where not all applicants are interviewed, your personal statement may be the only opportunity you have of presenting yourself to advantage. They aren't necessarily universally valid, since different university departments have different characters and may value different approaches, but we hope you'll find them helpful. The following guidelines are intended to give some indication of what we look for in this section. Some of these things are past and cannot be changed, and others are wholly or partly outside your control but one area where you can have a considerable influence on the decision is your personal statement, and this is the section on which we are most often asked for advice. The selector will take the whole of the UCAS form into account when making a decision: your GCSE /AS level or access/preparatory track record, especially in the relevant disciplines your choice of A levels or performance on an access/preparatory course your predicted grades your reference your personal statement. The following guidelines will help you to represent yourself to best advantage in your UCAS application, increasing your chances of a place on your chosen course.
