Hey, I currently hold 3 offers on UCAS, but despite the decisions of the other 2 i will be choosing 2 of the ones i already have offers from, i was wondering if anyone knew whether if i cancel my other two choices on UCAS could i then accept my firm and insurance straight away or would i still have to wait till May or something. I could wait but if i end up getting offers from any of the other 2 then someone else won't who might want it. cheers

You getting an offer from an institution won't stop another individual who that University likes getting an offer: if they really want them, they'll make an offer. So don't let that influence your decision.

But yes, if you're sure that you want to make two Universities you already have offers from your firm and insurance choice, then you can cancel your pending choices and move ahead. You don't have to wait. :smile:

As James9876 says, you can do this. Whether you would be wise to is another matter.... There's very little if any benefit in making decisions about your firm/insurance now. See Firm and insurance choices :smile:

I know if a Uni wants someone they will give an offer, but some uni's may have a quota where they arent allowed to give out more than so many offers so that they dont get fined, anyways thankyou for the advice

I just withdrew from RHUL so yeah, you can cancel the outstanding choices but only if you're sure you like the other ones! You don't want to withdraw and then change your mind... :tongue:

English at the University of Birmingham. I'm on A2B and a Re-applicant though so I guess my case takes some extra consideration. It's horrific!

Guys, wonder if any of you can help me out...

I applied for student fiance last year but obviously as I didn't go to uni I didn't receive the money. I've come to reapply for finance this year and It's telling me I can't because my information is all still on the system. Does anyone know how to withdraw my application or update it for the next academic year? Thanks in Advance.
