Schools and Colleges

The Student Recruitment Team work with schools and colleges to support students in progressing to Higher Education, provide advice and guidance on applications, student finance and study options, represent USW at events and exhibitions across the UK and Ireland, and organize on-campus visits and open days to allow students to experience USW.

Our sessions can be delivered at a time that suits your Year 12 and 13 students (or college equivalent). Our sessions are available in Welsh and English.


Our UCAS Guide

We've developed a UCAS Guide to support your students through the UCAS application process.  From initial research, questions to ask at open days, to useful hints and tips for writing a personal statement, the guide has everything your students need to prepare for their UCAS applications.
