Why study here

Middlesex University is a public university in Hendon, north London, which became a university in 1992 after operating as Middlesex Polytechnic. It is known for art and design, business, law, nursing and computing, and it has a large international student community. The university also has overseas campuses in Dubai and Mauritius. Living in outer London is cheaper than in central London, though still costly compared with most of the UK.

Admission requirements

  • A levels, the International Baccalaureate or an equivalent for bachelor's (some school certificates need a foundation year), and a relevant bachelor's degree for master's
  • IELTS Academic or another English test the university accepts, unless you are exempt by nationality or a previous English-taught degree
  • Official transcripts and certificates, with certified translations if they are not in English
  • Some courses set admissions tests or interviews, including medicine, law and most courses at Oxford and Cambridge
  • For master's and PhD: a CV, statement of purpose and academic references; PhD applicants usually also need a research proposal and an agreed supervisor
  • Proof that you can pay tuition and living costs, as UK Visas and Immigration requires for the Student visa

How to apply

  • Undergraduates apply through UCAS (Oxford, Cambridge and most medicine courses have an earlier October deadline); postgraduates apply directly through the university's portal
  • Upload transcripts, language scores, your passport and, for postgraduate programs, CV, statement of purpose and references
  • Pay the application fee if the university charges one, and apply before the program deadline
