    HELP! UCAS has sent wrong grades.
    I have just received an email from my insurance university saying that they have only received the grades for a 12 unit BTEC, where as i completed the 18 unit BTEC, and was told by the college that i had achieved and that they will send off the grade D*DD. Now i am terrified that i can't get into uni because of this mistake.

    I can't find a UCAS contact number which is open during the weekend. Please help/

    Calm down, it's just a mistake and is easy to remedy.

    UCAS is not contactable over the weekend. Send your insurance an e-mail saying that you believe the wrong grades have been sent and that you are going to be contacting UCAS on Monday.

    My fear is that since my insurance has received my grades, is that my firm received my incorrect grades and has rejected me.

    ring your firm and tell them there has been a mistake with the grades ucas have sent and could they confirm what grades they received

    I have sent then email saying pretty much saying this. I can't ring the college or UCAS until Monday though, since they are shut.

    Then don't worry, just contact them and let them know what's happened as well. Don't worry anyway - even if they did reject you, you get in contact with them and explain that there's been a mistake.

    I realise it's frustrating and unfortunate it became apparent on a Friday, but there really isn't anything to worry about; it's an easy mistake to correct.
