The UCAS International Podcast: Series Two

This series tackles the key decisions and practical steps you'll need to take on your journey to studying in the UK – from exploring your options and applying, to relocating and finding your feet in a new country.

The UCAS widget

Host the UCAS widget on your school/college website or Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), to link students and their parents to important UCAS info.

UCAS consultations

We periodically undertake national consultations to gain feedback and views from customers and stakeholders, on the strategic direction of our core services.

UCAS Tariff

The UCAS Tariff is a means of allocating points to post-16 qualifications, based on a simple mathematical model which uses a qualification size and grading scale to generate a total number of points.

UCAS Tariff points

Find out what UCAS Tariff points are, how they’re used, and how many points your qualifications are worth, using our points calculator.

UCAS terms explained

We use quite a few terms in the application process. We’ve explained them all here, if you need to check what any mean.
