At the end of Year 12 you will receive an initial UCAS briefing.
On returning in Year 13, you will start your university application, where you will attend open days with both APST and individually with a family to make sure you make the best five choices.
Once you have submitted your application (generally in late January) and received offers. APST staff and staff in our partner schools will support you with student finance and accommodation support so that when you complete APST your progression to university is ready to go.
