UCAS Extra is a service offered by UCAS that allows students who have used all five choices on their original UCAS application and have not received any offers, or have declined all their offers, to apply for additional courses. Being on UCAS Extra does not necessarily mean that the prestige of the course is declining or that the level of the cohort is also declining.

The prestige of a university or a course depends on a number of factors, including the quality of teaching and research, the reputation of the university and the department, the employability of graduates, and other factors. The University of Nottingham is a highly respected university with a strong reputation for research and teaching, and its School of Economics is considered to be one of the leading economics departments in the UK.

It is worth noting that some universities and courses choose to participate in UCAS Extra as a way to attract a wider range of applicants and to fill any remaining places on their courses. Therefore, being on UCAS Extra does not necessarily mean that the course is less prestigious or less competitive than other courses.

In terms of job prospects, the prestige of the university and the course may play a role in the eyes of some employers, but ultimately, it is the skills, experience, and achievements of the individual that will determine their employability and career prospects. The University of Nottingham has a strong record of graduate employability, and graduates from the School of Economics are highly sought after by employers in a wide range of sectors.
