英國大學和學院招生服務中心UCAS使用指南

For students hoping to go to?university after their A-Levels, the?UCAS?application process will be a huge part of the autumn term of their final year at college or sixth-form.

對于想用A-Level成績申請大學的學生來說，UCAS申請程序將是他們接下來這個秋季學期的重頭戲。

UCAS is a centralised portal through which students can apply to educational institutions, and receive and compare offers.

UCAS（Universities and Colleges Admissions Service 的縮寫，即“大學和學院招生服務中心”）是一個集中的門戶網站，學生可以通過網站申請學校，接收錄取，并協助學生比較自己收到的錄取結果。

As of 2019, there are 391 universities and colleges across the UK that UCAS?works with, coordinating applications and interviews.

截至2019年，英國有391所大學和學院與UCAS合作，開展線上申請、錄取和面試。

In 2017,?the organisation?handled 2.85 million undergraduate applications from 699,850 UK, EU?and international students.

From those applications, 533,890 students secured a full-time place at a university or college.

2017年，UCAS處理了來自699,850名來自英國、歐盟和國際學生提交的285萬份本科申請（一個學生最多可以提交5份申請）。從這些申請中，有533,890名學生在大學或學院獲得了全日制錄取。

What is the application process?

UCAS申請流程簡介

While there are some exceptions (students will need to check with UCAS and individual providers), the majority of traditional undergraduate applications will be made in the following way:

雖然偶有一些例外（學生需要與UCAS和個別學校溝通核實），但大多數傳統的本科申請將通過以下方式進行：

Students initially explore and research the courses and establishments on offer to them using the support and information provided by the UCAS Progress service and helpful links and top tips supplied on the UCAS website.

首先，學生使用UCAS Progress服務提供的支持和信息以及UCAS網站上提供的有用鏈接和重要提示，去探索和研究不同的課程和服務。

Once students have shortlisted a selection of courses and universities, they can begin their application.

At this point, they can enter a maximum of five?choices, bearing in mind factors such as type of course, entry requirements, location and facilities available.

當學生挑選出了自己心儀的課程和大學，他們就可以開始申請了。此時，學生可以輸入最多五個選項，同時考慮到諸如課程類型，入學要求，位置和校園設施等因素。

In addition to choices, students must enter their personal details, educational history (including qualifications gained and those pending) and will need to submit a personal statement that outlines how and why they are a good student; one suitable for the selected course(s) and capable of meeting the demands of higher education.

除了填寫選項，學生還必須輸入他們的個人詳細信息，教育歷史（包括獲得的資格和待定資格），并且需要提交個人陳述，描述個人特點以及長處，闡述自己為何適合所選課程，并證明自己有能夠滿足高等教育需要的一些個人能力。

The final step is for a reference (usually written by the educational establishment processing the application) to be attached and for the student to pay their application fee.

最后一步是提供參考（通常由處理申請的學校來編寫）以及學生支付申請費。

When do applications need to be made by?

什么時間申請？

UCAS官方提供的時間線

Students will need to check with their schools and colleges as to whether there are internal deadlines in place for processing applications, but generally, as far as UCAS?is?concerned, courses in medicine, veterinary medicine/science?and dentistry are required earlier (October), along with any application to Oxford or Cambridge universities.

學生需要向他們申請的大學查詢是否有內部截止日期。但一般來說，就UCAS申請而言，醫學、獸醫/動物科學和牙科等課程，以及牛津大學或劍橋大學的申請截止時間會提前（10月份）。

Applications for the majority of other courses are?accepted until mid-January with a final late-applications deadline at the end of June.

大多數其他課程的申請截止時間是1月中旬，而最后的申請截止日期為6月底。

Anything after this date will go straight to clearing, whereby students are assigned to remaining spaces following results and confirmation of places from those who applied within the designated time frames.

在申請截止日期之后，所有申請內容將進入補錄程序。根據申請結果和學生在指定時間范圍內的申請確認，還沒得到錄取的學生將被分配到補錄環節。

What is clearing?

什么是補錄？

Clearing is a system used to fill vacancies on university courses. It’s also an opportunity for students who have not accepted university places, or have not met the requirements for their conditional offers, to find a place.

UCAS的補錄即填補大學錄取名額空缺的系統。對于那些沒有接受大學offer或者沒有達到有條件錄取條件要求的學生來說，在補錄環節里也有機會找到適合自己位置。

All students who have not successfully enrolled on to a university course will be automatically entered into clearing by UCAS. For more information, check out Tes' guide to clearing.

所有未成功注冊大學課程的學生將由UCAS自動進入補錄環節。
