If you missed the normal admissions deadline, Hillingdon says your application will be dealt with through the late application rounds. For some school phases, you also may need to wait for a late offer letter rather than seeing the outcome online.
| School phase | If you applied late | What happens next |
|---|---|---|
| Secondary | After Friday 31 October 2025 | You will not be able to view your outcome online. An offer letter will be sent by email in line with the late application timetable. |
| Primary | After Thursday 15 January | You will not be able to view your outcome online. An offer letter will be sent by email or post in line with the late application timetable. |
| Junior | After Thursday 15 January | You will not be able to view your outcome online. An offer letter will be sent by email or post in line with the late application timetable. |
For late secondary applications, Hillingdon says the first round of late offers will be week commencing 30 March 2026. For junior schools, late allocations will be from the end of May. If you need more detail, Hillingdon directs you to email admissions@hillingdon.gov.uk.
