Manchester Access Programme

Basically, the information I needed to get onto the map programme just came through. I tried accessing the application on the website but it isn't working.

Has the deadline passed or something? If so, is there anything I can do?

What year are you in, if you are in year 12 you may have some time but I think you would have to apply soon.

If I'm not wrong, I think the deadline was 16th December - so I would try ringing in and speaking directly.

Try getting through to the MAP Team on 0161 306 6505

Forgot to say, I did actually ring up and they told me I missed the deadline by an hour or so :frown:

I am in year 12 but apparently only year 12s can apply to during that period

That's a shame, but it's not the end of the world by any means. You can still sign up for UMASS at Manchester, and as far as widening participation programmes go (though I'm not sure of the deadlines!) Realising Opportunities, UNIQ and the Sutton Trust may still be open to you. Access to Leeds almost certainly is available to you if you were eligible for MAP, but you don't apply for that until early next academic year.

MAP is something you apply for I'm first term of Y12, but you send in an Access to Leeds form at the same time as you send in a UCAS application to Leeds, so first term of Y13. Access to Leeds is like a pared down version of MAP, but you still get a offer that's two grades lower from Leeds.

There will be some form of bursary that's open to you regardless of whether you did Access to Leeds or not, but I don't think there's an extra bursary. I'm on my phone though so can't check.

Did you have a look at any of the other schemes I mentioned?

I couldn't seem to find an application form for realising oppurtunities.
