What is UCAS?

We are the organisation responsible for managing applications to higher education courses in the UK. Not only do we process more than two million applications for full-time undergraduate courses every year, but we help you to find the right course for you. We try to make things run as smoothly as possible by providing everything you need online: from making your application through to tracking your offers.

We organise conferences, education fairs and conventions across the UK and produce a wide range of publications, all of which are aimed at helping you to make informed decisions about higher education and to guide you, your parents and advisers through the application process.
