Transferring to another institution is a big decision, and can take time to complete. We would recommend speaking with someone (such as a tutor, supervisor or support officer) at your current university for advice.
You should also discuss with them the impact that a transfer might have on your funding or visa arrangements.
If you decide that you wish to transfer to the University of Essex, contact the Undergraduate Admissions Office to check your eligibility prior to applying.
Please provide the following information:
- the course you are interested in transferring to;
- the point of entry that you wish to transfer into (for example second or final year);
- details of your A-level and GCSE qualifications (or equivalent);
- for transfers into the second or final year – please provide a full list of modules that you have completed, or are completing, in your current university study. If this has already been completed, you should provide a copy of your results transcript;
- a copy of your English language qualification, if you are not a first language English speaker;
- confirm in your email whether or not you require a student visa to study in the UK.
A final decision will not be made on your application to transfer until your application has been received and all sections of the application reviewed in full.
Please note that you will only be eligible to transfer into the second or final year of study at the University of Essex if you have studied the pre-requisite course modules in your current university, and have passed these at the required level.
