Dealing with rejection

I've got 4 rejections:bawling::bawling:, is this the end of the world ??????
Nope. You can apply through clearing i guess. But rejection is not the end of the world, maybe you were unlucky and the courses you applied for were already full up maybe? I'm sure if you get good grades there will be a place for you in clearing? I'm not really sure how it works.

What uni's did you apply to?
What course did you apply for? Where? What are you predicted? What are their standard offers?

I think you could also reapply through UCAS extra

You can apply through UCAS Extra when it opens sometime in February -- check the UCAS website for the exact date. All courses with space available are complied into a list and you have to apply one course at a time until you get an offer. To do this I think you have to phone up the uni and see if that course really does have places available, because sometimes courses are put on the list automatically when they are actually full up.

No, it's not, I coped with my rejection letter by writing this spoof response, have a look, it might cheer you up: http://izinspired.com/2015/01/07/dear-oxford-university-a-student-scorned/

Hope Extra or Adjustment works really well for you x

You did apply for five unis right? If you did you may get an offer letter but anyway that's not the point, there is always the UCAS extras and clearing and you're bound to get in. Anyways good luck :smile:

That's okay. You have a lot of options:

Ucas extra
wait to hear from your 5th
Work hard, go through adjustment in August
Take a Gap year and reapply to university which match your grades (which also means you'll get unconditional offers because you will have already achieved the grades)

Apply in ucas extra! Did you apply for a course with grades that were to high for you to achieve or did you apply to a competitive curse like medicine? Maybe try to be more realistic if it was the former. X

I thought everyone was equally considered as long as the applied before the deadline?

They are, and Ucas comes down heavily on any university that doesn't abide by this.
