Application Deadlines & Course Closures

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.

September 2023 Application Deadlines

Our next intake for full time courses is September 2023 and we strongly encourage those who are interested in starting a course at this time to submit a new application as soon as possible.

All on campus students*

*Does not include online learning students or undergraduate students applying through ICRGU. UK based undergraduate students can find application deadline information on the UCAS website.

Application Deadlines

International Students: Main Cycle closed on 5 May 2023, Late Cycle Closed on 1 July 2023**
UK Students: Applications remain open dependant on volumes received and capacity/space within courses which have not already closed. See Course Closures

**We aim to respond with a decision on all applications made prior to the closing of the Main Application Cycle deadline date. An application made after this date, within the Late Application Cycle, may not be considered dependant on volumes received and capacity/space within programmes.

Condition Deadlines

International students: 24 July 2023 at 12 noon UK time (or GMT).
UK students: 15 September 2023

A condition deadline indicates that the document, evidence or financial requirement such as deposit must be met on or before that date. This means if you are transferring funds they must be received into the University on or before the deadline date.

Immigration Deadlines

Final CAS issue date: 31 July 2023

The CAS issuance period is calculated to allow for the processing time required by the UKVI, on average, for a standard student visa.
