All you need to know about Clearing for Higher education courses. Sounds complicated, but we’ve kept it super simple for you.
1. What is Clearing?
Clearing is the name of a UCAS service which allows colleges and universities to fill remaining spaces on courses which aren’t full up yet.
This means that, even after A Level results day, students who don’t hold offers can still secure their place on a course at a college or university.
Students who currently hold offers they don’t want to accept can also secure a place through Clearing.
If you missed the 30 June deadline for applying to college or university, don’t worry! You can still find a suitable course through Clearing if:
- you haven’t received offers (or do not want to accept offers given)
- the conditions of your offers were not met
- you have paid a fee of £26 for “multiple choice application”
- you have declined your firm place on UCAS Track
Clearing for Higher Education courses open 5 July at Activate Learning. Visit What is Clearing? on the UCAS website to stay updated on the latest information from UCAS.
