Sussex Foundation Year/Clearing

Does anyone know whether the University of Sussex are lenient on the entry requirements or if put as a firm choice that the foundation year would be automatically accepted if missed the grades.

Leniency will vary year on year and from course to course depending on how other applicants do. Chances are they will accept some students on some courses with missed grades.

Not all universities will automatically consider you for their foundation years, so if you'd be interested and the course is in clearing, it's worth ringing up on results day.
