london uni clearing?

hey i was just wondering if anyone knows if kcl or queen marys are likely to do clearing for politics this year?
got rejected from kcl for law since its very competitive, although predicted grades were 3 a*'s and i think i would do well in my a levels.
my firm is currently exeter for law but tbh i dont wanna move out of london, and kinda wanna do politics instead.

what would be the likelyhood of getting into one of the london unis thru clearing for politics or is it still extremely difficult?
Have you contacted KCL to ask if they’ll reconsider your application for politics instead? They can technically reverse a rejection to a different course as long as you haven’t yet replied to your offers.

yeah, it was an automatic rejection since they didnt respond before the ucas deadline, and they said they cant hand out any more offers or make any exceptions since its too late
Why would anyone would want to go to KCL after their recent behaviour towards applicants.

Phone QMUL or City and ask about Clearing.
I wouldn’t wait for clearing if you know you don’t want to move out of London. Look into ucas extra first
Maybe take a gap year and reapply?

im not completely sure thats the thing, i dont wanna decline my offer from exeter since its a great uni and if i do end up going there i wouldnt mind too much, its just that if i manage to get the chance to stay in london by clearing then i deffo would

Politics with Economics at University of Bath is still open for both UK and International applications.
