If you're considering going to university then we'd love to introduce you to Marjon. We combine small class sizes and a hands-on practical approach to teaching to help our students learn. We listen to and support our students because we want learning to be happy and healthy.  

You can search for a course by name using the search function below, or scroll down the page to find out more about what we can offer you as an undergraduate student.

Study

If you have any queries about applying please contact admissions@marjon.ac.uk and we'll be more than happy to help. We review all undergraduate applications received by the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) deadline each January. 

If you miss the deadline, we'll consider applications received after this date for any course on which places are still available. You'll find our typical offers on this website, but we may be able to make different offers in some cases.

Undergraduate courses

Unless otherwise specified, all applications must be made through the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) using Apply Online. You can do this through your school or college if they are registered with UCAS, or independently.

Full details and instructions can be found on the UCAS website, including details about references and application fees. The UCAS code for Plymouth Marjon University (Marjon) is P63 (PMARJ). If you have any problems applying online, get in touch and we'll gladly help you.

Your application should normally reach UCAS between the start of September and the last Wednesday of the following January. It's best for all applicants to apply by the UCAS January deadline, although late applications will still be considered where there are places on the course.

Part-time applicants

Applicants who want to apply for part-time study should apply directly to the University, normally between 01 September and 31 July. However, bear in mind that part-time study isn't available for all teacher training and Speech & Language Therapy programmes.

Please apply to the University using our online Apply Direct service.

Non-standard qualifications

It's impossible to list all of the qualifications that we'll consider, as every applicant is unique. So if you have any questions about eligibility, it's best to get in touch with the Admissions Office. We recognise the value of learning outside of formal education institutions, so we're happy to consider applications on an individual basis. If you don't have the standard entry requirements but you do have a raft of skills, knowledge and experience, we really encourage you to talk to us about the possibilities.

How we make offers

At Marjon, we encourage you to recognise that you are more than your exam results. You are not defined by letters and numbers. We recognise that some people don’t have top grades before university, for many reasons, but still become brilliant students with us, and go on to do truly inspirational, life-changing work.

We believe that if you find the university that fits, your academic talents will thrive.

If you think that could be you, we’re interested in hearing from you. Apply to us. We assess your fit with Marjon in many more ways than just your exam results, predicted or otherwise.

• The Admissions team will assess your qualifications and use your personal statement to help us assess your motivation and values and fit at Marjon. If anything is unclear, they may contact you. This could be if you have non-standard qualifications, or international qualifications, for example, or have been out of education for a long time.
• The lead Tutor for the course (the ‘Programme Lead’) will also assess your qualifications, predicted grades, and Personal Statement. Sometimes they may contact you for more information. As part of this discussion, you can submit a portfolio of your work for us to assess your academic skills, or we might request a short submission of work from you.
• You can also request a discussion with the Programme Lead to explain your reasons for wanting to be part of Marjon, or just to work out if it’s the right fit for you.

Sometimes, particularly when we have been impressed with your achievements so far, we make offers that are grade–reduced. We only do this if we are confident that you will continue to work hard to achieve your grades, and where we are sure that you have the academic drive to succeed at Marjon. (Please note, we can’t do this on professional courses where it’s mandatory for you to achieve certain grades.)

Students with disabilities

We welcome applications from students with disabilities, and we put a lot of effort into making sure your university experience is every bit as fulfilling - both academically and socially - as it is for other students. We think it's a great idea for you to visit the University before you apply, (either through a virtual visit or in person) and we can sort out informal visits and extra support at interviews. Once you join the University, all the backup you need will be readily available through our Student Support & Wellbeing service.

More info

We have further information available online for care leavers and estranged studentsinternational students and mature students.

 

If you have any queries please contact us and we'll be happy to help. You may also wish to see the terms and conditions associated with application to us.
