148 information for further education college staff
We have a dedicated member of our team whose responsibility it is to liaise with further education colleges. Our FE Colleges Liaison & Articulations Coordinator offers UCAS and articulation advice to applicants, and is available to give presentations in the FE colleges as well as guiding student groups from the FE colleges around our city campus.
Currently we offer the following presentations to FE colleges: • Pathways from college to the University of Dundee • UCAS application to the University of Dundee
If your college does not yet have a formal articulation agreement with the University of Dundee, please contact our Coordinator to discuss the opportunity for establishing these clear progression routes for your students onto our degree programmes.

advice on entry qualifications
Because of our strong reputation, entry to all our courses is competitive. Whatever qualifications you have, we look for good passes which would gain you entry to a degree course in your home country.
We are pleased to consider applications from students seeking entry to Level 2 or Level 3 of our courses.
Contact the International Team giving full details of your qualifications, with marks or grades obtained. You can also meet us in your country, register for one of our webchats or find out more at

english language proficiency
If English is not your first language you must provide documentary evidence of your ability in English by obtaining a recognised English language qualification. Normally we would expect students to have an IELTS score of 6.0 or equivalent; however, some courses require a higher IELTS score.
You may also wish to develop your English language further before you begin your degree course. We offer a range of English support courses depending on your ability. Please visit
www.dundee.ac.uk/prospectus/english for more details.
tuition fees, living costs and scholarships
All students or their sponsors must pay tuition fees as well as their full living and travel expenses. Students normally resident in EU states are treated on the same basis as Scottish domiciled students for fee purposes (see page 146) while students from outside the UK or EU not normally resident here pay fees at the overseas rate. Information about fee levels, estimated living costs and overseas student scholarships is available from
www.dundee.ac.uk/prospectus/overseasfees
application procedure
You should apply online through UCAS, the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (see page 144).
application procedure for study abroad and non-graduating students
If you wish to study on a non-graduating basis, you should not apply through UCAS. Discuss your plans with the appropriate person in your home university and then complete an application form which can be downloaded from

Our Residences Office takes special care in allocating accommodation for students from overseas, especially students arriving in Dundee for the first time. We guarantee to provide University accommodation to single students who apply before the deadline.
In accordance with current students’ preferences all our accommodation is self-catering which allows students who may require a special diet to prepare their own food. Local shops and supermarkets supply international food and cooking ingredients and the city has many restaurants serving food from all over the world.
See page 143 for further details.
meet & greet services Arrangements can be made to meet international students (from countries outside the EU) on their arrival at Edinburgh Airport immediately before the start of the semester.

international advice service
Our International Advice Service helps our international students settle into Dundee by organising cultural excursions and opportunities to meet other students during the first few weeks, and is available to give advice on a range of issues, such as visa extensions, throughout the year.
Previously, our international students have enjoyed a Scottish Ceildh (dance), a visit to Glamis Castle and a weekend trip to the Highlands.
