Does Kings still have vacancies on this course. If they do and you meet their entry criteria you have a high probability of getting an offer. If its closed basically you have no chance.

i called them and they said it’s open for the course, i meet the requirements but only contextual. their website says i may be eligible for contextual. and the “may” is scaring me🤨 i also dont even know if this applies to ucas extra offers :/

also regardless of the fact that its been a while since ucas extras been open for a while, do you think my chances are still good?

If they still have vacancies at this stage and you meet the criteria there is a good chance of an offer as they want to fill their places. You will only get the conditional offer if you meet a contextual flag such as post code, schooling etc.

The only way to find out is to apply

sorry😭 i double checked the conditions & im pretty sure I should be eligible.
so theres no like condition that they wont accept contextual for ucas extra right? just worried cause its a fairly popular course i think, not sure if applying w contextual reduces the chances

Just call them up to check. After Jan 31st unis can change their selection methods and can always make whatever offers they wish.
