Applications for art and design courses goes through the main UCAS procedure. This means that UCAS sends your application to each university or college, and you can wait until you have received your decision for each choice before replying to any offers. Depending on which university or college you are applying to, the deadline for the application will be either 15th January or 24th March. You will need to check the deadline date for each institution you wish to apply to.

The Course Search tool on the UCAS website www.ucas.com displays the application deadline for each university or college offering the course. You can also check the 'When To Apply' page of the site or view a list of courses using the 24th March deadline.
