Ramona Said:

How to apply to the University of London from America?

We Answered:

I'm assuming you want to apply to do a bachelor's degree.

For all British undergraduate courses, you apply through UCAS http://www.ucas.ac.uk/ . This was set up over 40 years ago so that people applying to British universities don't have to fill in separate application forms for every different one they want to try for. You get five choices and your online application gets copied to all of them.

The University of London is a special case. It's a federal university and you need to apply to an individual college - they're almost like separate universities except that the degree is awarded by "head office". http://www.london.ac.uk/colleges_institu… shows you what they all are. They don't all offer the same subjects, either - I attended Imperial College (which is no longer part of the University) and that only teaches sciences and engineering, for example. In UCAS, each one is treated as a separate university. Plus it has a number of medical schools.
