UCAS Subsidiaries
UCAS operates two postgraduate application services: the first is UKPASS (UK Postgraduate Application and Statistical Service) which was introduced in 2007 and has a number of universities and colleges lining to join up to the service.
The second is the GTTR (Graduate Teacher Training Registry) for PGCE and PGDE courses (which provide initial teacher training for graduates).
As no British conservatoires are members of UCAS, it also operates CUKAS (Conservatoires UK Admissions Service) in conjunction with Conservatoires UK. CUKAS manages applications for both undergraduate and postgraduate music degrees at most (but not all) conservatoires. Those conservatoires that are not members of CUKAS handle their own admissions.
UCAS also operated NMAS (Nursing and Midwifery Admissions Service) for non-degree nursing and midwifery courses until September 2007, when these courses were incorporated into the UCAS scheme.
