Declaring Grades on UCAS Applications **UPDATED for 2014-15**

I basically resat year 12, and during the year I resat I retook one history module, bringing my grade up to an A overall for AS History. But I forgot to put down that I retook this module on UCAS, and just declared that I have an A overall for AS history. I've contacted UCAS telling them I wish to add this module retake on. I've also notified all the unis I applied to. Do you think this could be detrimental to my application? :\

Hello,

I am currently on a gap year and need some assistance with my application.

1) Do I need to add my GCSE grades twice if I have resat them in year 11? Or do I just add the highest grade?

2) I got a U in an AS subject do I need to declare it?

Thank You

You need to enter both versions of the GCSE, assuming you achieved a pass grade in both.

On the U in an AS that you are not resitting - it depends on how you read the UCAS guidance. On the site it says you wouldn't need to declare. When you hit 'pay and send' you are asked to confirm that you've entered everything, including exams you've failed.

Thank you for the advise! I want to be on the safer side which would mean I will have to enter the U. However, how would you go about it?

i sat a maths module at my secondary school and re sat it at a new sixth form how would i enter that?

Hi,

In my Maths AS, i got a B grade... however I weren't too far off an A, so I want to resit 1 module in Maths, so can I put my AS maths overall grade as pending, but declare 2 modules I am not resitting, but the one I am, as pending also?...

Sorry I've only read the first page so apologies if I'm repeating a past question here! I understand we have to list all AS grades - is this applicable to Gap year students with our full A Level grades already achieved? Or do I just enter the one I dropped?

If the original AS has been certificated its result has to be declared as well as the pending exams.

sorry to sound stupid, but by certificated... you mean recieved a certificate for it? which i have not... ?

You don't have to have the certificate in your hand - check your results slip; if an overall grade is quoted as well as the individual module grades, the qualification has been certificated. Schools very often hold on to the certificates as they come in from the exam boards, so that they can give them to you all in one go. Check with them if you aren't sure.

I've sent off my UCAS form, but didn't know you had to declare AS resits. I'm panicking a bit. Any advice?

O'rite... hmm.. But, can I put just delcare the B overall, and each Modules, then just resit the module I want to... only thing is... how will they know I'm re-sitting it?

You enter the subject twice, once as an achieved qualification, and again as a pending one. If you are entering unit grades, leave the one you are resitting as pending in the second version.

Ring up Ucas and speak to them they'll be able to advise you properly. Tell then your situation and your likely to be told to tell the departments you've applied to as well. Don't panic - ring tomorrow and it'll be sorted soon enough.

Ok thanks!

Just wondering what would happen if I failed to notify UCAS of this omission?
