Going through clearing even though I have offers

I have changed my mind about which university I want to go to and am looking to go through clearing. However with the results I’m predicted i believe I will get one of my choices but no longer want to go there. Would it be possible for me to go through clearing if I have received offers or not?

Yes, you can self release into clearing, and change universities via clearing. If you exceed your firm offer, you can also use adjustment.

If you need to use clearing, you won't be able to hold your offer whilst looking at other unis, though.

Thank you for this. Can adjustment be used to go to a different university or does it have to be the same one?

You can shop around to different unis with adjustment.

Adjustment can be used for any uni that has spaces available.
