There are lots of reasons why students might use the Clearing system to apply to university e.g. if you want to apply after 30 June, if you didn't have any offers (or at least any that you wanted ...to accept), or if you didn't meet the conditions of your offer.
Birkbeck accepts applications through #UCAS Clearing, from July until the start of term, from students who are looking for a place on one of our full-time undergraduate courses (certificates of higher education, foundation degrees and BA, BSc and LLB degrees) starting in October. Our #Philosophy academics can provide more information about studying at Birkbeck and our Clearing team will provide advice and guidance on accepting your offer, enrolling and preparing for your studies.

Why be moral? Are there moral truths, and, if so, are they discoverable?
Come and explore some of the most profound questions it is possible to ask with some of the most eminent philosophers in the country.
Enrol today for an October start on our Morality and Society evening course, a core part of our BA and CertHE programmes, and this Autumn begin journeying into historical and contemporary philosophical debate.

How should we answer sceptics who doubt that we know there is an external world outside our own minds? This Autumn, come and use your evenings to explore epistemology, 'the science of knowledge' with us at Birkbeck.
