Applying for a course is easy
Once you've found the right course for you, all you need to do is apply directly to us.
Why starting a degree or course in January might be for you:
- Perhaps you don't want to wait until next September - you're ready to start now.
- You'll be paying the same fees as students who started in September.
- You'll be able to get the same financial help as students who started in September.
- Plenty of students at Derby start in January - so there will be lots of other students in the same situation as you.
- Maybe with the new year coming, you want a new challenge and have only just thought about university qualifications.
- You can still graduate at the same time as everyone else - our graduation ceremony is held in January each year, so you won't be left out.
