My teacher left my ucas prediction blank

My said that she sne the UCAS application, but on UCAS all I see is qualifications that are pending and no reference.

Also I accidentally selected the free school program and don't pay the application fee, I told her to send it back but she said it's too late.

Wil there be a problem? Or will UCAS ask me to pay it later? And is it just UCAS taking its time with the system so I can't see my predictions?

Applicants are not allowed to see the reference or predicted grades because that is considered confidential.

How about me accidentally selecting the free school meals bursary options instead of paying? Would I be told to just pay the normal fee tomorrow or will my application be cancelled?

UCAS will check this against the national data-base.

In all fairness, applicants are entitled to see their reference once their application has been sent off to UCAS (because of the data protection act) if they call UCAS. Advisors do warn you about confidentiality over the phone and when they send it, there is an additional note.

UCAS
Please note the reference and predicted grades (where applicable) have been added to your application in confidence by the referee and specifically for the courses you have selected at the time you applied. Please do not reuse it for any other purpose, including a new UCAS application, without the consent of the referee. Any misuse of this reference could be considered fraudulent and ultimately unauthorised reuse of this information may lead to a cancellation of a future UCAS application.


The document is also encrypted with a password.

Edit: but yes, there's no way of seeing it on Hub before an application would be sent.

Hi I had the same issue. My teacher sent the ucas application with everything but predicted grades. I have been rejected from a university because of this reason. Is there anything I could do at this point?

Your school needs to email the predicted grades directly to all your uni choices. Personally I would then call them to explain the issue and make them aware that there's an email with the predictions.

Thank you for responding. My tutor did email back the university with the predicted grades however they said that as it was not originally mentioned in the ucas application, they will still have to reject me on this basis


Unfortunately that is their prerogative as they don't have to consider anything outside of the UCAS application. It was worth a shot though.
