Who can use the UCAS Clearing Scheme?
• Students who have not obtained the grades required for a place from their firm and insurance choices. • Students who have applied after the 30 June deadline. • Students who have not yet applied to university, although you need to have completed a UCAS application in order to use Clearing. If you haven’t yet applied, apply online now via UCAS Apply. Remember that you will need a reference as well as your personal statement. Bear in mind, also, that universities may not be enthusiastic about students making their initial university applications via Clearing, unless there are extenuating circumstances. Think carefully about whether you need to start higher education this year, or whether you can take a year out and apply to university for 2010 entry.
