How to apply
Full-time degrees
You apply online through UCAS (Universities and Colleges Admissions Service). Full instructions are available on their website; alternatively you can ask your school or college, or local British Council office if you are an international student, for guidance. You can also download our guide to the The UCAS Process [pdf].
Part-time degrees
You can download an Application form (A1) from our website, or contact the Admissions Office and request one to be sent to you.
Art and design degrees
If you are applying for the BA in Art Practice, the BA in Design, or the BA in Fine Art and History of Art, you follow slightly different procedures to other applicants. Please see Art and design degrees for details.
International students
International students apply in the same way as UK and EU applicants. You can study any of our full-time undergraduate programmes. We also offer Extension Degrees in Art Practice and Music designed especially for international students, which include a year of foundation studies (including English Language studies where necessary).
English Language programmes
To apply for the International Foundation Certificate in the Humanities and Social Sciences or Pre-sessional Programme, please download a Language Studies application form.
Exchange students
If your university has an official exchange agreement with Goldsmiths, you can apply through your home university as an exchange student. Our Study in London Programme has details of courses available to exchange students.
Deferred entry
If you are considering applying for deferred entry, please write to the relevant Admissions Tutor before applying; most departments recognise the value of a gap year between school and university, but some are not able to accept these applications because of the demand for their degrees.
Applying through UCAS
Our UCAS institution code is G56 and the institution name is GOLD.
The application fee for the service is £19 for more than one choice, or £9 for a single choice.
