Receiving an offer

Following your successful application, you’ll receive your offer letter by email. This can be conditional or unconditional. 

Conditional

This is an offer on condition of providing additional information – this could be missing information or subject to receiving qualifications and grades. All the conditions of your offer are listed in your offer letter. If you’re unsure about what any of your conditions mean, please contact us.

If you don’t meet your offer conditions, don’t worry. We may be able to offer you a place on alternative programme, so it’s still important to send your results to us as soon as possible.

Unconditional

An unconditional offer means that you have met all the academic requirements for your course. Once you’ve accepted your unconditional offer, you can start applying for on-campus accommodation. There may be a few additional checks which we’ll need to undertake before we send your CAS. You can find more information about this in the next section.

Accepting an offer

To accept your offer, you’ll need to log on to your application portal – either with University of Staffordshire or UCAS Hub, depending on how you applied. 

Next steps

Once you have received your Unconditional Offer, you will need to pay your deposit to secure your place. We proudly partner with Convera to offer you a simple, secure, and smart way to pay your fees online.
