    UCAS help please (graduate)
    I have just registered on the UCAS website and am not 100% sure I am doing it right. I am planning to re-take an A-level starting in September and finishing July 2013, and am applying for 2013 entry. So my question is on the UCAS website do I select to apply as an individual? Or since I am re-taking an A-Level do I select that I am applying through a College?

    Any help would be great thanks

    To apply through the college I think you need a 'buzz word' or something... Sorry been a while since I did it so may be changed terminology. Best bet is to speak to the college and see what they say about it.

    Hi thanks for the reply, the problem is I haven't actually started at the college yet, I start in September and I want most of my application done before then. I swear UCAS got more confusing than when I did it back in 6th form

    Apply as an individual will be fine but then you need to get yourself an academic reference which, as you haven't started college yet should probably be a tutor/lecturer from your previous course even if it was unrelated (mine was English lit and that was fine)
