How do I make a change to my application?

Changing your email address

We will communicate with you using the email address you provided in UCAS' application system.

If you wish to change this email address, you can do so by logging into UCAS Track:

  • Navigate to the Personal details section where you can update your email address.
  • UCAS will email you at the new address with a verification code – enter this in Track to confirm it's the right email address. You cannot do this over the phone as it would negate the verification process.

Changing the course you applied for

If you're happy with Imperial but you'd like to change the course you applied for, you'll need to get in touch with the relevant Admissions team.

In the message, please specify:

  • which course you have already applied for
  • the course you wish to considered for instead

We will consider all change requests, though we may not always be able to approve them, depending on the point that we receive your request.

Changing your personal statement

If your application is with your school or college but hasn’t yet been sent to UCAS, they can return it to you so you can make changes.

Once it has been sent to UCAS, you cannot amend your personal statement. 

If you have applied to Imperial as one of your choices, the relevant admissions team will be able to advise whether you can send an amended version directly. This may not be possible as your application may already have been processed.
