For private candidates who are unable to get predicted grades and are having to take A level exams in the autumn, and possibly having to defer their conditional offer to Sept 2021 entry, will there be a more flexible UCAS deadline if they don't quite make their grades (when results come out in December) and want to reapply to different universities, but still start in Sept 2021? Otherwise it means that they will have to wait until Sept 2022 to start university because of A level exams being cancelled in summer 2020. Few universities have a direct application option - particularly medical schools.
