Modules on UCAS

I have applied on UCAS and my school has sent off my application. However, when looking on Reddit I noticed that some people have put their A-Level modules in on UCAS. I didn't realise I was meant to do this. Does anyone know if this will be an issue/whether I should contact my unis to tell them what I am studying? I have applied to Cambridge and can put my modules in on the extra Cambridge application form, but am a little concerned about the other unis. I have received my first offer though so am hoping it isn't too much of an issue. Responses would be greatly appreciated!

Hi @lawofducks123,

While there are options to do this, for most universities, it won't matter too greatly. I would say an exception may be if the modules within your subjects are explicitly related to your required subject. Universities want to see if are in the right position to take on the course you have applied to and for the most part your subjects will do that without stating which modules you have done. If you still think you should put them on, contact UCAS and they may be able to help you edit your details.

I hope this is helpful

If Unis need that info, they will email and ask you for it - but actually they are not that interested in endless module names.
