Provisional grades to university

Hi guys, I’ve done an online access course I’ve gotten a provisional results so not a finalised results yet which will take so long. I cannot wait that long and need to get into university fast. Do you think universities accept provisional grades while I wait for a finalised results
Yes, UK unis accept pending qualifications. Your referee will be asked for predicted grades, (they can enter your providional ones if they wish).

NB. Applying with provisional grades won't get you into uni any quicker. You might receive a decision sooner, although equally you might be on hold for longer.

Hi thank you! I’ve done a level 3 nursing access course so I’ve got “achieved distinction merits” do they accept these? I can do a January intake but until I wait for my finalised results I want to get in for this intake

Access courses are accepted on a case by case basis, so you’d have to check directly with the unis you are considering.
