Checked against UWC's published information on 23 Aug 2026. Universities do move dates — confirm on their portal before you rely on this.
What else UWC needs from you
A closing date is rarely the only date. Add a UWC course to Oriva and it creates the closing date, a reminder to book and write the NBT two weeks ahead, and the residence deadline — then emails you when one falls inside the next week.
Oriva organises and tracks. You submit the application on UWC's own portal.
