Sporting success with universities

Its rare for a lower offer to be made - but there may be more leniency in August if you dont quite hit the grades and you are an elite athlete and the Uni values that. Bath and Loughborough are the big sports Unis and are the most likely to do this.

To be honest I don’t really agree with this. Most universities that I have gotten in touch with have been very happy to reduce my grade for instance; nott, nott Trent and Exeter. As well as Durham holding a video call as “flagged for sporting excellence” although they don’t reduce a grade they offer other support including scholarships etc.

Hey

I have just been through the application process for unis etc. I found that if you get in touch via email with the specific coaches after applying the grade was reduced although it is very dependent on the course of what you are looking to study and which unis you end up applying to.

I ended up firming and then insuring both universities which gave me a reduction although this was a grade lowered.

hope this helps and good luck!

Thank you!! I have a zoom call with a uni's head coach so that will be interesting. Appreciated your reply!!

No stress.

If you have any other questions about Personal Statement etc I'm happy to pm mine over to you or any email structures etc.

Good luck with the video call I'm sure you will smash it!
