For those students that applied at Lancaster how hard is it to get a offer, and how were the offers like?

Did you have any particular subject / course in mind?

Finance

Finance

Finance at Lancaster went into Clearing in 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023. That would suggest that the course is normally undersubscribed, and that they are likely to make suitably qualified applicants an offer.

Note that in 2023 they were accepting BBB via Clearing (source). That would suggest that even though they ask for ABB, they'd accept candidates achieving BBB.

Hi @MARCU51,
The finance course at Lancaster has the requirements of ABB, so you are more likely to get an offer if you are on track for these grades and have a good personal statement. There is contextual offers scheme at Lancaster, which you may be eligible for, i've attached a link for you to look at. https://www.lancaster.ac.uk/study/undergraduate/contextual-offers/#who-is-eligible-493796-1.
If you have any more questions feel free to ask.
Hope you application goes well!

Both daughters applied. Eldest for physics with particle physics 2020, she got an unconditional offer at interview (she was predicted A*A*A*A). Youngest for Zoology for 2023 and she got an offer of ABB (predicted ABC and EPQ). The youngest decided to do a gap year, eldest accepted. It really does vary in the degree. They reduced the youngests offer from AAB to ABB.
If you want the clearing grades, they are here: https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=6904136 on post number 14. I took a copy and paste on the results day. They are subject to change each year due to how popular the course is and how manys applied and whos got what.
