Didn't link UCAS ID to LNAT until now??

So, I sent off my UCAS application a little over a month ago with 3 of my choices needing the LNAT. However, I have just discovered that you were supposed to link your UCAS ID to your LNAT account in order for unis to be able to see your LNAT test. I received an email from LSE about a week or so ago asking to provide details of my LNAT ID and registration since they hadn't received it but I didn't think much of it.

I've just added it in now, however, am I too late? I applied to Oxford and they have started sending out decisions for Law. With it being such a competitive course, I'm worried they might not do what LSE has done and ask if I sat the LNAT or not, and instead just reject my application outright.

Is this something to be worried about? And if so, is it worth sending an e-mail to the admissions team?

I'm sorry but I can't say much about Oxford, however, I am sure that the other choices will consider it. :smile:

Can totally relate to how you're feeling lmao, dw about it too much. It wasn't a big deal for any of my unis (even oxford!) and def don't think it impacted my application. I just sent an email to them with my LNAT ID and UCAS ID explaining I forgot to link it to my application and they emailed back saying they now received it. If you update your LNAT account with your UCAS ID, I believe it gets attached to your application automatically (not 100% sure tho), but definitely do send an email (with your ID) as well letting them know so they can confirm for you.

plus, I think you technically have till the 20th jan to sit the LNAT (even later for bristol - 26th feb!) so even if you hadn't done it yet, it wouldn't be a problem and shouldn't affect your chances :smile:

hope this helps

How did you add the ucas ID to your LNAT account? I can't find it anywhere in the settings!
