Sheffield is my top uni. I had interview at Liverpool that went went well. Due to EPQ my offer for Sheffield is AAB.

Liverpool results would come nearing March 31st. Would it be possible for me to firm Sheffield and then put Liverpool as insurance once the results are out( assuming that I get an offer).

The issue is that Liverpool may only give me AAA.

Yes, you can put an insurance option down that has higher grade requirements than your firm. If you prefer the uni with lower grade requirements (Sheffield for you), go for it
For those who have had offers back from Sheffield, who is definitely firming ?

My son is planning to firm. He had a place here last year but missed his grades (was offered biomedical but decided to resit his final year instead). He likes the city and uni and found the med school to be open and supportive in their approach. it’s far enough from home but not too far (2 hours drive/train). He’s also got Sunderland offer, waiting on Manchester and reserve list for ARU.

I’m waiting for my Scottish choice which offers wayyyy lower tuition fees. But apart from finance, everything else definitely tells me Sheffield so probably that’s what I’ll choose regardless

Not sure if they've been sent yet - others with invites seems to have applied for other courses (eg Biomed) as well as medicine

My son and I going then too . We are planning to go for the accommodation offer as well. Went last year and found it really useful. Makes it all seem real and gives a chance to explore the accommodation options.
For applicant days/ offer holder days, do you receive an email about it after or before replying to the offer in UcAS?
