Welcome to the Admissions Team at Ulster. We provide a centralised admissions service for applicants to all our undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes. We are often the first point of contact for potential applicants, their advisers and parents.

If you are unsure what you would like to apply for or whether you meet the entry requirements, please take time to check out the range of courses we offer. Each course page will provide details of the course and what qualifications you would need to be able to gain entry.

We also have an excellent tool that can help applicants to our undergraduate courses check whether specific non A-Level qualifications are acceptable for entry to the University.  You can find this on our  Equivalency Checker.
