UCAS 2027 Season Planner
Build a backwards-planned UCAS 2027 timeline for your sixth form in two minutes — internal deadlines, feedback rounds, references and parent comms, with a calendar export your team can actually use.
Your UCAS 2027 internal timeline
Set your route and how much buffer you want before the UCAS deadline. The planner builds a dated, owner-by-owner timeline you can export to your calendar or print.
Choose your route and buffer to generate a working internal timeline.
The deadline that bites is your internal one, not UCAS's
Schools that run the cycle calmly do one thing differently: they set internal deadlines weeks ahead of UCAS, so references, checks, and final edits happen without a January scramble. The schools that aim straight for the UCAS date are the ones writing references at 11pm.
This planner turns the two fixed UCAS 2027 dates into a working internal timeline — drafts, feedback rounds, reference evidence, final checks, and parent communication — all dated backwards from a buffer you choose.
The two dates everything hangs off
These are the published UCAS 2027-entry deadlines. The planner uses them as the fixed points and builds your internal schedule before them.
- 15 October 2026, 18:00 (UK time): Oxford, Cambridge, and most medicine, dentistry, and veterinary courses.
- 13 January 2027, 18:00 (UK time): equal-consideration deadline for all other 2027-entry courses.
- Always confirm against ucas.com — and treat your internal date, not the UCAS date, as the real one.
What you get
The output is not a generic checklist. It is a dated plan specific to your buffer and rhythm, ready to share, print, or drop into a shared calendar.
- A backwards-planned timeline from kickoff to the UCAS deadline.
- A suggested owner for each milestone, so nothing falls between a tutor and a coordinator.
- A one-click .ics calendar file you can import into Outlook or Google Calendar.
- A clean print/PDF one-pager, and a copy-to-clipboard version for your own newsletter.
