Ucas error

Hi there, im not sure if this is an error but I applied for Accounting and the university I applied to has given me an unconditional for Comparative Literature and Film Studies.

What do you think I should do? My other choice gave me a place for Accounting, but I wanted to go to my firm.

Thank you

I would recommend contacting the university to see why this happened - universities offering changed courses must do so within the same subject area. I'd also recommend contacting UCAS to make them aware as this is totally inappropriate. Which university is this?

Queen Mary.

But the different between accounting and Comparative Literature and Film Studies is wayyy to different.
The requirement for Comparative Literature and Film Studies is - BBB and I received an unconditional for this
for Accounting it is - AAA

What does this mean :frown:

This very bizarre.

Call them and find out why they have done this. Do you have your exam results yet?

I think the unconditional was for theatre and film not accounting

Yeah they messed up my courses. My course was accounting, It wasn't Comparative Literature and Film Studies. I dont know why they did this.

Once you have your results give them a call. If you have missed your offer then they can offer you an alternative course choice. However, it should be relevant to your initial choice.

Let us know how you get on - we'll help you with this :smile:
