Transferring or applying from another university

Please note that we do not normally consider applications from students currently enrolled on a degree course at another UK university, unless:

1. You are in the final year of your current course and are applying for a second undergraduate degree or
2. You are completing a standalone Foundation Year or taking credit-bearing courses with the Open University (or comparable institution) or
3. You have exceptional circumstances which mean that you are unable to continue at your current institution or
4. You want to change from what you're studying to a different discipline.

In cases 3 or 4, you may need strong support in the form of a written reference or letter of support from your course director or tutor. You may also be asked to demonstrate that you have sufficient funding to complete the Cambridge degree where you have already used part of your Lifelong Learning Entitlement.

We recognise that there may be good reasons for students from outside the UK to be undertaking an initial period of study at a local university. If that applies to you, please consult the website of the College you wish to apply to for guidance; we do not recommend an Open application in these circumstances.

If you do not disclose prior undergraduate study via your UCAS application, this will be treated as a fraudulent application, and your application may be cancelled.
