Clearing

I’ve recently got a clearing offer from strathclyde for a course, however my initial course was from strathclyde. I was told I didn’t need to do anything and that they’ll send me an email in a few days. It’s been around 30 hours and i am getting worried that i’m not doing the right thing and i won’t get a space on the course i want to do.

What’s your current status on UCAS?
Did you get the name and job title of the person you spoke to on the phone? Did they confirm anything about your conversation by email?

It’s current place confirmed and I haven’t received an email. I was told not to do anything and it’ll all be handled on their side as i’ve applied for accommodation and have already paid for my first month

OK so your place at Strathclyde is confirmed but you want it switching to another course.

That should be straight forward for them to do if they have vacancies and you meet the requirements. It often takes 24 hours for the update to show on UCAS but if you're worried then ring them up.

When you ring ask for the name and job title of who you speak to so you can be sure you're getting through to someone in admissions and not someone else who is helping with clearing calls. And explain that you're worried and would like them to just email you to confirm what they've said in writing.

Whatever you do DON'T use "decline my place".
