I’m thinking about applying through clearing, what do I do?
It’s quickly coming up to results day, and we want you to be prepared no matter what the outcome may be! Clearing is a secondary option if you don’t get your predicted grades, or change your mind about your course.
”Clearing is a part of the UCAS university application process. It is a way for universities to fill any spaces they have left for the new academic year. It gives applicants who do not hold an offer another chance of finding a university place.” (Credit: The Student Room)
