UCAS application, order of university

Hello. I have submitted my UCAS application. However, I realised that I did not order my universities into first choice, second choice etc.
Now, I am worried because the ucas welcome email has stated the order differently from how I would like. It is also different from the order I entered the universities on the website as well.
Will this affect my application? Please let me know, thank you.

It will have no bearing on your application. Each individual institution will not know where else you have applied- so order on your UCAS doesn’t need to be ranked. No need to panic !
Good luck with applying 🤞

Thank you! I’m glad to know this.
But whether it matters or not, there is no way to order it right?

UCAS will list them in alpha-order of the Uni's UCAS code - but its totally insignificant.

You don’t express a preference until next April when you choose a firm and insurance offer.
