I applied to uclan but missed the deadline for the form. Do you think they’ll allow me to submit it late or am I better off withdrawing my application and applying somewhere else?

It’s worth emailing admissions! I hope it’s okay tho!!
i was just thinking now (obs im not admissions) but since it's passed the ucas deadline if you change an option won't it be seen as late? maybe email the uni you would change and uclan to see what you can do i rlly hope it works out!! lmk what happens

Hi there @Sumayyahnazir,

I would advise you contact our admissions team who will be able to look into this for you. You can contact the team by email at [email protected] for further support. Within your email please include your full name, course name, date of birth and when you submitted your application.

Best wishes,
Sarah

honestly my best advice is stay busy try not to think about it if you can, spend maybe an hour each day until you have interview invites! is this your first time applying if so i’m assuming you’re in school/a levels

today i’ve just gone over the gdc principles and practice mmi questions for it and now i’m binge watching married at first sight hahaaha how about you?

all the best with you too! i’m sure we’ll be fine getting and interview means the school wants you and they’ve given the opportunity to “sell yourself.” everyone should be on an equal playing field although some unis will use sjt to decide between candidates so long as you’re b1 or 2 you should be goood !

anyway i’m just wishing i got in when i was 18 applying as a grad is an extreme sport 😭

pre-interview rejection from Aberdeen ☹️ due to vr score despite everything I've done! very disappointed but the course is very competitive if you're RUK
however....
i got a UCLan interview yesterday! starting to feel very real now as this time last year i got rejected pre-intervitime to work super hard because this is my dream to study dentistry since i was 16 (...now im 23) and i'm too close to missing it!
good luck to everyone else applying!

Yeah Aberdeen only has a few spaces and it is very competitive for RUK students. Well done for the UCLAN interview though that's so good!
