It is your responsibility to ensure that your referees upload their references prior to any application deadline. Your transcript can be either a scanned version of a paper one that you upload with your application or one downloaded from your institution’s secure website.

Apply online checklist
UCL expects that the online application form will be submitted by you as an individual and not through an agency. UCL is not able to support applications made through agents. UCL expects that the email ID and password that you create will be used by you solely for the purpose of submitting your own application(s) to study at UCL. The reuse of log-in details for a different applicant can result in loss of data from applications that have already been submitted and may delay or adversely impact your application(s) to study at UCL.
