Official AS & A2 Results Day 2016

UCAS receive the A level results from exam boards by August 11th.

They match them to applications over the next day or so.

Track will be suspended at 2pm on August 12th

Universities will have the results by 9pm August 12th.

It will take overnight for universities to load those results into their systems and produce the reports for people managing confirmation to run through. So university staff are likely to be working on the Saturday/Sunday before results day.

Every. Single. Confirmation Decision. Is done MANUALLY. A person at a university will sit there with your results alongside your offer conditions and will flag whether you've met your offer (accept), missed by miles (reject/pool for other courses), missed a bit (put into near miss pile for consideration once university/department/faculty situation is understood).

This is usually done by the end of Monday - then near miss decisions will be made.

Those decisions then get input onto the university applications system.

Someone else will cross check them.

Finally they'll be exported/sent to UCAS.

If they're with UCAS by 6pm Wednesday then they'll show up on Track on Thursday morning.

what the heck are you talking about ?

Hey mate, which course have you applied for? Was it maths?

Guys I wanna ask a question. So my uni and course are in the clearing 2016 list atm - UEA (Law with American Law). Requirements are 3 As, but if I get AAB or ABB worst case scenario would I still be accepted into the course considering its on the clearing list?

That was fear-inducing to read.



They're only sent to you if you ticked the box when you first applied - something about marketing or promotions?

Was it from UCAS Media or something? I stopped getting those a while back as I opted out.

I've managed to keep myself quite calm up until this point, but now I can feel the nerves starting to kick in.

It seems so close now ; I'm so terrified as usually I know what to expect from my results but this year I'm really really unsure about how I've done :/

I know, these are the big ones as well, possibly the biggest results we will ever receive in terms of career direction, in our entire lives. Whatever happens- Good luck.

Very likely you'll still get in

You know if you get the grades you can ask imperial to switch and defer your application?

Crazy offer but I wish you good luck for results day and beyond! Yes I am at uni - just finished my second year with 2 more left to go.

I've asked them before if it was possible and they have said it's highly unlikely to switch between departments and would require me to be reinterviewed at the very least. So I might as well just reapply since I've got my gap year sorted anyway. Plus, I do want another crack at Cambridge after being rejected after interview.

They are different departments??
And ahh well. That makes sense.

I thought I read somewhere that Universities may email you before the 18th to inform you if you have been successful or not. Can anybody confirm this or is the 18th the first time you can get your results?
