University of Warwick

Outreach at Warwick

We’re committed to supporting students from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds. Our contextual admissions approach considers educational and individual contexts to provide a rounded understanding of each applicant’s academic potential and achievement. This ensures that we fully consider talented applicants from all backgrounds.

Our contextual admissions policy is designed to ensure fairness in our admissions processes, by taking into consideration Widening Participation (WP) indicators related to socio-economic and educational disadvantage.
