Referee question

In the UCAS section i have to complete my referee's e-mail adress and phone number. What happens if my referee has no phone number?

I don't know what happens, but is the phone number question marked as compulsory? That means you have to give it. What I did to get all the correct details of my referee was I just copied the questions into a word document and sent it to my referee via email. Not too much later she'd sent me a reply with all the information filled out so I only had to copy it to UCAS.

It would be very unusual for them to not have a phone number. Just ask them which number they would prefer you to use. If they are expecting to provide your reference, then they will know that you need to give a phone number for them.

I had my mom sit next to me to check every single box I filled in because I was paranoid I'd make a mistake :biggrin: Luckily there was a "see everything" section at the end where I could see that I'd forgotten some things in the qualifications sections...
