Going to a better university than my firm

If on results day I get the grades needed for a university I was rejected from, so couldn’t firm, but it now turns out if I had got an offer I would’ve met it, can I phone that university and potentially get a place?

You can go through Adjustment, yes. But at the original institution that rejected you? I am not sure about that.

You can phone who you like on Results Day - it doesnt mean that they will have any spaces or accept you.

There is no adjustment any more.

You'd need to reject your firm and enter clearing to do that there used to be a service called adjustment that was exactly what you just described but they stopped that a little while ago,

Ah ok, thank you, would I also need to reject my insurance?

Yes to enter extra and clearing you must be holding no offers.

The other issue is that the university you intend going to must have paces and be in clearing.
