Advice for uni

Hey guys I recently got unconditionally accepted on my UCAS page however although I met my a-level criteria I have yet to receive my GCSE results which required a C in maths however I have still been accepted? Is this because the uni already has my maths results or they accepted me soley based on my a levels?

Unis get A level results a few days before you do, I'm not 100% sure it's the same for GCSEs but if it it then they'll already have them. That or their simply happy enough with your A level grades. I'd put them having made a mistake at a distant third on the list possibilities.

No, they don't get GCSEs automatically at all, and they won't have them in advance. It's up to the applicant to send the results to the university themselves. In this case it looks like they are going to take OP regardless.

So say I didn't get a C in maths will I still be accepted?
