Documentary evidence (UK)

Evidence of your full name (including any change of name) and date of birth

You must send us a photocopy of one of the following:

  • birth certificate
  • passport
  • marriage certificate
  • deed poll
  • statutory declaration
  • alien's registration certificate
  • National ID card

Evidence of every qualification you have listed on your application form

  • You must send the original certificate/s (where available) showing the final award/s for each of your qualifications.
  • If an original certificate is unavailable for any reason, you may either submit any other evidence you may have relating to the qualification(s) or await the initial response to your application. The University will then advise you exactly what evidence you need to submit.
  • If the evidence you submit is incomplete or unacceptable for any reason, the University will ask you to contact the appropriate awarding or examining authority to arrange for them to send a certified statement of your results direct to the Admissions Office in London.
  • Although the University may be able to start processing your application without receiving all the required evidence, they cannot issue a decision until all the documentation has arrived and been reviewed.
  • It is strongly recommended that you send all original documents by registered post or recorded delivery together with a payment for their return by the same method (£5 Sterling is usually sufficient). If you do not pay the return postage the University will return the documents by second class post.
  • You can send your original result slip/s of any 'A' Level examinations for which the final certificate has yet to be issued. Result slips from previous years cannot be accepted - you will need to submit the original certificates.
  • The University Admissions Office must receive all documentary evidence requested after the application form has been submitted within one month of the date of the request. If you are unable to meet this deadline you must let the Admissions Office know without delay.
  • The University reserves the right to ask for further evidence of your qualification/s if required.
  • It is your responsibility to arrange for all the necessary documentation to be obtained in support of your application. The University cannot undertake to do this on your behalf. (This also applies to any translation(s) of documents submitted by the applicant that may be required).

Documentary evidence (outside UK)

Evidence of your full name (including any change of name) and date of birth

You must send us a photocopy of one of the following:

  • a birth certificate
  • passport
  • marriage certificate
  • deed poll
  • statutory declaration
  • alien's registration certificate
  • National ID card

Evidence of every qualification you have listed on your application form

  • You must send either the original certificate/s showing the final award/s for each qualification, or photocopies of these original documents verified by a British Council official.
    Note: The University Admissions Office cannot accept photocopies that have been verified by anyone other than a British Council official.
  • If the British Council is unable to provide this service, you must submit:
    either the original certificate for each qualification
    or you should contact the appropriate awarding / examining authority and arrange for them to send a certified statement of results direct to the Admissions Office in London.
  • Although the University may be able to start processing your application without receiving all the required evidence, they cannot issue a decision until all the documentation has arrived and been reviewed.
  • It is strongly recommended that you send all original documents by registered post or international recorded delivery together with payment for their return by the same method (£5 sterling is usually sufficient, or £15 if you wish your documents to be returned by courier). If you do not pay the return postage the University will return the documents by airmail.
  • If any evidence you submit is either incomplete or unacceptable to the University for admission purposes or if they need further information about a particular qualification (e.g. a transcript and/or syllabus), you may be asked to contact the appropriate awarding or examining authority to ask them to write direct to the University Admissions Office giving further details of your qualification/s.
  • You can send the original result slip/s of any 'A' Level examinations for which the final certificate has yet to be issued. Result slips from previous years cannot be accepted - you will need to submit the original certificates.
  • The University Admissions Office must receive all documentary evidence requested after the application form has been submitted within one month of the date of the request. If you are unable to meet this deadline you must let the Admissions Office know without delay.
  • The University reserves the right to ask for further evidence of your qualification/s if required.
  • It is your responsibility to arrange for all the necessary documentation to be obtained in support of your application. The University cannot undertake to do this on your behalf. (This also applies to any translation(s) of documents submitted by the applicant that may be required). Certificates which are not in English often need to be translated by a certified translator and both the original / copy of the original, and the translation need to be sent to the Admissions office. If you are a foreigner in another country you can sometimes go to their own country’s Embassy to have the translation done.
