Want to change uni course!!
I've made a huge mistake and applied to study psychology but I've decided that it's not really for me as my A2 lessons bore me and I find it quite difficult. (I know it's different at uni but still..) The problem is, I have already confirmed my firm and insurance uni's. I'd like to study criminology/sociology somewhere else but think it might be too late

Does anyone know if it is possible to get my firm and insurance to reject my application then apply elsewhere through Extra or do I have to wait and go in to clearing?
Any help would be appreciated as I hate the thought of not knowing where I'm going to be/what I'm going to be doing in September!!
Thank you

Re: Want to change uni course!!
''Can I change my replies?
You can change your replies once within seven days of the date that you made them by contacting us. We send you a Status Check letter (AS9 or AS9D) once you have replied, please check it. To make changes or to discuss other possible options for changing if you're outside the seven day period, you'll need to contact us.''
Best off contacting UCAS. I'm sure it's possible to do but it's going to be a ballache essentially and do bare in mind, that there's always the chance you won't get a place through Clearing and will have to wait until 2013 but no point doing a course you're not interested in

Re: Want to change uni course!!You can't go into Extra after you've replied to your choices and picked a firm and insurance - unless it's within 7 days and then you may be able to. However, you can ask the choices to reject you and from there you'll be able to use Clearing.(Original post by lornaflynn)
