Although it is RGU’s intention to remain open during main cycle and to continue to accept and process applications until this deadline, we may yet need to close to new applications sooner than advertised if volumes continue to increase at their current rate. As such and to avoid disappointment we encourage and advise you to apply well before this deadline. We may not be able to consider processing new applications made or where conditions are met after the deadline date. You should prepare to meet all conditions well in advance of the advertised final date, especially the deposit payment as this must be within the University Account prior to the final deadline date.
Further information about deadlines and other important dates will display on this page when confirmed.

**We aim to respond with a decision on all applications made prior to the closing of the advertised deadline date. An application made after this date is considered a late application and may not be considered dependant on volumes received and capacity/space within programmes. Please note this deadline is set based on the time allowance needed to apply for visa and the time needed by the UKVI to process your application to them.
