UNIQ Selection, Decisions and References

Thank you for your application to UNIQ 2024, please consider this as notification that we have received your application. You will not receive confirmation via email.

You can further check this by logging in to the application portal where it will confirm that we have received your application in the final screen.

After the application closing date, the team spend around a month selecting students for UNIQ, often with the assistance of academics. We receive around 6000 applications a year and our top selections will be students who meet one or both of our core criteria.

All selection is name blind so we are not able to inform you of the progress of your application until the decision date. This is also why we cannot make any changes to your application once selection starts, although there is a very small window after the closing date where minor changes (such as a change of address, or reference email) can be submitted.

Decisions

You will receive an email around late February 2024 containing the result of your application. If successful, you will receive a link to confirm your place on the programme.

If you have applied and have still not received an email from us by March, check your spam folder then email uniq@admin.ox.ac.uk and we will re-send the decision message to you. Please be aware that we cannot give details out over the phone and can only send a response to the email address given at the time of your application.

Correcting Errors

If you have realised that you have made a mistake in your application now that it is submitted you can contact us by email and inform us of the corrections needed. You must contact us with the same email you applied with otherwise we will not be able to make the changes.

You can see what you placed in your application by logging in again but you will be unable to change it directly.

References

Everyone who gains a place on a UNIQ residential week will require a referee to confirm their details. This is normally a teacher or another individual within your current college/sixth form that has access to your past exam results. Your allocated referee will be sent the request only after you have gained a place and not before. Teachers will be sent an email after the decisions have been announced that contains details on how to submit a reference via our online system.

Support Provision

Residential students will receive an online form asking for important dietary and medical information. This information is not important in the initial UNIQ application but is considered essential should you gain a place.
