UCAS Centre
UCAS stands for the 'Universities and Colleges Admissions Service'. It's an organisation responsible for managing applications to higher education institutions courses in the UK. UCAS helps students make informed choices that are right for them and guides them through the entire higher education application process.

If you want to study in Great Britain, UCAS is there to help you. Instead of writting to each university on your own, you just apply online through UCAS. And why are we writting this here? Because our school, Prywatne Liceum Ogólnokształcące im. Melchiora Wańkowicza, is a UCAS centre, which simply means that we can help you with your application.
