    When will I know whether I have my uni place?
    I took the IB and got my results a month ago. I missed my firm offer by a couple of points with extenuating circumstances. The university (Exeter) has told me they can't make a decision until they have the a level results which I believe they get today. Will they tell me if I am successful over the next few days or will I have to wait until A level results day on the 16th. Thankyou.

    The A-level results come out next week on August 16th, so I would say to wait for at least a week and at most two weeks.

    They get the results on Saturday. There's no knowing when they'll tell you if you have your place, but if you don't get a decision when (or before) Track updates next Thursday morning, start chasing them up for a response.

    Ok thanks. I was under the impression they got them a week before (today). I won't have to constantly check ucas/email till Saturday then.

    No point doing this anyway, as track is frozen until results day! No changes will be/can be made from any side until then I'm afraid
