The UCAS Application

UCAS

WHAT IS UCAS? 

UCAS is the UK’s official application portal for undergraduate (bachelor) degrees.  As students can apply for law school after high school, this includes any law applications.  

An essential element of the free service we provide is helping students with the UCAS application. Canada Law From Abroad is here to help you ensure that your UCAS application is completed not only correctly, but also in a manner that presents you, the candidate, in the best light possible. 
 

MAKING THE BEST UNIVERSITY CHOICES 

We first review each student’s academic credentials, along with preferences or interests, to help create a list of suitable degree programs. Based on the details provided, we guide students to a selection of our preferred partner universities where they have the best chance of a successful application. Since UCAS only allows a maximum of five university choices/programs, we ensure that students are choosing universities that will allow for success. With our help, a vast majority of Canada Law From Abroad students will have at least one university offer (and usually well above that!).   
 

ENTERING YOUR GRADES 

The UCAS application is aimed at students from the UK, so some aspects of the application may be challenging for Canadian students to complete.  It’s not just international students, though—even UK students get help from their high schools! 

What is a “module”?  What does UCAS mean when it asks for a “qualification”? And is my qualification “below honours”? Your personal advisor speaks British English and can help you fill this section out accurately! 
 

THE PERSONAL STATEMENT  

We also help each student as they write their personal statement, ensuring it is tailored and appropriate for a British audience. The North American personal statement style is different from what a UK university admissions officer would expect. We help write their statements in an academic style that also serves to enhance their chances of success and make them more attractive candidates. 
 

YOUR LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION 

Which teacher or professor should write your letter of recommendation, and what should it include? Did you know there is a good and a bad way to make your request? Asking for this favour appropriately could result in a fantastic letter to support your application. Our university partners review applications holistically so a strong letter of reference is crucial.
