Using MUSE is the easiest way to:

• Book to attend departmental open days
• Apply for University accommodation (available from March)
• Apply for scholarships
• Complete pre-registration tasks

If you go on to register as a student at the University, you’ll continue to use MUSE to download course materials, manage your student record and access University services. And you’ll still be able to use MUSE after you’ve graduated.
