CAS for undergraduate applicants
All UK universities and colleges are currently subject to a data embargo, which means we have no access to undergraduate student records, or any applications made through UCAS (i.e. undergraduate records). This is because school exam results are being published and the data needs to be protected at this time.
We are not able to issue any CAS or access your student record to provide any information regarding your status until 10th August when the embargo lifts. Please be assured that we will issue your CAS as soon as possible after that date, provided that the certificates have been checked and verified by the admissions team.
