Hi @Eddy54

Don't decline anything until your son has been offered a place on an alternative course and he is happy with his choice. If he declines his firm choice, and then changes his mind or doesn't secure a place on a different course he could be left unplaced.

He needs to look at what unis still have places on the course/s he is interested in. Once he's found a courses/s he needs to ring those unis first thing on on results day to see if they would offer him a place based on his results. Once he's made his decision he then releases himself into Clearing and the uni he has decided to go to can make him an official offer through UCAS hub.

Whilst many uni's don't require a personal statement when applying through Clearing, they may well interview (we do at Teesside University for both nursing and physio), so he needs to prepare for this and reading back through his PS might help.

I hope this has helped and wish your son the best of luck!

Thanks for your help. He did keep his firm choice and spoke to Chester and Wolverhampton. He got informal offer from Wolverhampton but since he couldn’t release into clearing as it was showing as waiting confirmation on UCAS. So he was unable to add informal offer to his UCAS but has interview on Monday. He’s not sure what to do as the nursing team leader assumed he would be able to do that Friday so have him interview Monday. Not sure what to do as after interview if he isn’t selected he will lose firm choice as he can’t add to clearing unless he declines firm choice. He really wants to do nursing but will end up not going to either if he messes up interview and then go another year via accces to he at Leeds or bradford.
