UCFB Frequently Asked Questions Thread

Our full list of FAQs are available on our website HERE. Should you have any questions that aren't covered please post them below and we will be happy to help!


If I’m short on UCAS points or don’t get the grades when my results come out in August, will I still be accepted?

Any applicant who does not meet their offer conditions when results are released will be considered very carefully on a case by case basis. If an applicant has missed the offer conditions by a small number of points and has otherwise shown good potential then we may still accept them.

UCFB will only accept students who have demonstrated that they have the academic ability to succeed on their course and if we do not believe that an applicant will get the full benefit of our degree programmes then unfortunately we have to decline them. In these cases we advise that they reapply to us after further study and preparation.
