Does Bristol ever enter UCAS Extra or Clearing?

I really want to know this, because if it does I might have to decline all my offers for Pharmacy and go for Physics, is possible :wink:

Any help will be will be greatly appreciated. :smile:

Bristol had some Extra vacancies last year, so they do enter. Not sure about Clearing. I'm not too sure about your subjects, it might be possible that not all places were filled at Bristol.

You can check when Extra opens in March before you decline any offers, but if you're happy with the unis you originally applied to, you could try asking them if you can switch courses as well.

I really wouldn't bank on it. I remember seeing a couple last year but it's not something that you should risk really, it's a very popular uni.

Last year all they had was Audiology.

Unfortunately, I wouldn't bank on it - it is the most competitive multi faculty in terms of applications per place.

Thanks for all the information guys,

v2006, you become elegible for Extra if you have no offers or you decide you do not want to do the course you've chosen. To do that you would have to decline all your current offers and apply to the universities in Extra one at a time. So you would have no insurance choice, its quite risky.
