UCAS and My Cambridge Application

We look for students with strong academic potential, a genuine commitment to their subject, and the ability to excel in high-level study, regardless of background.

How to Apply to Magdalene College via UCAS

If you're considering applying to Magdalene College, your Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) application must be submitted by 6 pm (UK time) on 15 October. This deadline is strict, and no late applications can be accepted.

UCAS handles applications to all UK universities, including Cambridge. You can apply to both Cambridge and other UK universities in the same year, but you cannot apply to both Cambridge and Oxford. Cambridge applicants can choose one course.

At Magdalene, we offer all Cambridge courses. To apply directly to the College, use UCAS Campus Code 'M'.

You can apply to a specific College or submit an open application, where you will be assigned a College after the application deadline. If you select Magdalene, your application will be sent directly to us.

Completing Your My Cambridge Application

After submitting your UCAS application, you will receive an email within 48 hours containing log-in details for your My Cambridge Application form. This additional form allows the University to collect important information about your academic background and qualifications that isn’t covered by UCAS.

You can save your progress and return to the form if needed. Comprehensive guidance on completing the My Cambridge Application is available on the Cambridge Admissions website.

Ensure that your My Cambridge Application is submitted by 6 pm (UK time) on 22 October. Meeting this deadline is crucial to keep your application valid.
