You need to see your referee, are you sure you missed the deadline, cos i didnt register mine till october last year. Try registering, and if it doesn't work go and see your referee

Completely and totally seperate. If you are talking about 09 entry you really shouldn't be worried. Even UCAS 08 is still open for another 2 days!

Realistically, you want your application in by January as that is when the deadline is for applications to be considered "with equal weighting" (i.e. if you submit your application after January, you have a disadvantage to those who got it in earlier)

what the...

"I have missed the deadline for registering for UCAS"
This statement doesn't make sense, as far as I know.
there is no such thing in UCAS system.
there is deadline for university application.

On the contrary. OneWayOfLife's statement makes perfect sense. Yours however, does not.

Are you sure the deadline for registering for UCAS has passed?
I mean, I was able to register for UCAS just an hour ago...
and it seemed totally fine.

There isnt a deadline for registering for UCAS! Not that im aware of i registered yesterday and it worked without a hitch!

Do you mean registering form 09' applications? Then you can apply up to 15th January 2009! I would disagree with the above post. Realistically you need to be aiming for 15th November time to have more of a chance to get on to your desired course.

If i were you i wouldn't worry! Your stressing for no reason

You're ok, don't worry. The deadline you are on about is for the UCAS card, the one that gives you like 10% of in certain shops etc.
