University Rejection

Can I email the university I have been rejected on for feedback to further information on my UCAS application?

Update:
I sent an email last night and got a reply this morning! It was still vague but I guess I tried.

You could, but there is a high chance that they might not reply back.
You are one among thousands and thousands who have been rejected and it does seem kind of pointless because asking for a reason won't get you an offer.

One of the main things to take into consideration is to say why you want to study the course? What skills do you have? Why is this your passion? Include extra curricular activities and roles. Always do other things related to your course outside of school hours, such as extra reading, attending lectures, doing online courses.

thank you

Find the university admissions policy and follow the instructions on there to request additional feedback.

Was there no rejection reason on UCAS hub when you clicked into the choice?

I would say its worth asking - especially if your application was strong ie predicted grades much higher than entry requirements, strong academic reference and excellent GCSE results. Again it will depend on the Uni and the course - but I would say its worth it - even if just for peace of mind.
