What is Clearing?
Clearing is organised by UCAS and is the last opportunity for you to find a place at university in September of a particular intake. Clearing is for students who:
- Haven't got the results they expected and therefore have been unable to secure their first or second choice of course
- Sent their application to UCAS after 30 June
- Haven't already applied through UCAS before the deadline and would like to make a new application
- Have changed their mind about the uni/course they originally applied for.
Think you might have done better than you expected?
If you are holding an unconditional firm place, you can release yourself into Clearing, using the 鈥榙ecline your place鈥 button in your application and accept an offer at another university.
Preparing for Clearing
There are a few things you can do to give yourself a head start before you start your Clearing journey. Every year thousands of students find a suitable university place through Clearing, so above all try not to panic and feel pressured into making a hasty decision on Results Day:
- Call听Clearing helplines
- Chat to current听students听and ask them any questions you may have.
- Speak to your school/college careers adviser for advice on alternative courses that will still keep you on the same career path, in case you can鈥檛 get on to the course you originally applied for.
- Universities will be able to tell you about the similarities between their courses, as some units may be the same between two degrees with a different title 鈥 so if your preferred course isn't available, there are still options out there.
- Search university websites or UCAS and take a look at the courses and entry requirements that are a good match for you. Try to be realistic about the grades you think you might gain听but remember that universities are likely to be more flexible with entry requirements during Clearing (this also means you could get your original place when you didn鈥檛 expect it 鈥撎齡ood news all round).
- Have a think about the things you'd like to ask the university about e.g. course content, course structure, assessment, placement opportunities, career prospects, facilities, location, accommodation, financial support, and other stuff that's important to you, and make a shortlist.
- Consider your accommodation options
- Your eligibility for Clearing will show up on your 听page 鈥 your status says 鈥You are in Clearing鈥听辞谤 鈥Clearing has started鈥. This will also be where you will find your Clearing Number (universities will need this so that they can access your application) and the 鈥樷欌赌听产耻迟迟辞苍.
When is Clearing?
Clearing is open between July and September. Most universities will publish their Clearing course vacancies on A-level Results Day (Thursday 15 August 2024)听with many opening for Clearing before this. 欧美性爱片will be open for early Clearing from Thursday 4 July 2024.
What is Clearing Plus?
Finding a uni place through Clearing is being made easier than ever with the听personalised course matching system from UCAS, Clearing Plus.
With Clearing Plus, UCAS will use the system to match you with courses you may be interested in based on your application, as well as providing information it has from universities about the type of students they are looking for.
For example, if a university has spaces on their BA (Hons) English degree and were looking for students with 104 鈥 120 UCAS points, if you have previously applied for English courses and meet the entry requirements, you鈥檒l see this university鈥檚 course pop up in your recommendations.
Who can use Clearing Plus?
Anyone who doesn鈥檛 have a firm place can take advantage of Clearing Plus. This would be you if:
- You didn鈥檛 like any of your offers
- You haven鈥檛 received any offers
- Your calculated grades miss your offers
- Your grades are higher than predicted, so you want to take advantage of courses with higher entry requirements
- You鈥檝e changed your mind and want to see what else is out there.
If you already have a firm offer, you鈥檒l need to give up your place and enter Clearing.
How does it work?
Once you鈥檝e entered Clearing, a new button in UCAS will pop up asking if you would like to 鈥淰iew Matches鈥.
If you find a course you like, all you need to do is click the 鈥淚鈥檓 interested鈥 button.
The university will then be notified of your interest and may get in touch with you to discuss your application further if there are still spaces available.
If you are successful in getting an offer, then you will add this as a Clearing choice in UCAS so it can be confirmed.
Then you can view your next steps听and start getting excited to start uni in September!
