As part of the admissions process to join one of Brunel University’s Professional courses, you are required to complete an application for a Criminal Record Bureau (CRB) Enhanced Disclosure.

Applications are completed online and the first step is to complete a face to face ID check. You are then required to make a payment for your application, the cost of a CRB is £51.86. Only then will you be given access to the online CRB application.

In order to complete the ID check you will need to visit the Admissions Office or attend an ID checking event. Further details regarding the CRB application and ID checking events will be sent to applicants in May.

PGCert and Social Work applicants
