International students

Non-UK nationals can still enrol via MyGlos. We’re required to check that all non-UK nationals have permission to study in the UK.

If this applies to you then you’ll need to show your immigration documents before enrolling.

We have support and advice available to help you with this process.

Under 18?

Applicants who are under the age of 18 will need to complete the parent or guardian consent form.

Student support

At UoG we’re committed to making your time here as enjoyable as possible. We offer a wide range of support services to students.

We have two Student Centres – one in Cheltenham and one in Gloucester. You can either pop in when you’re on campus, or make an online or in-person appointment.

Our teams offer 1:1, confidential support to students at any time.
