LSE Economics offer?

So my TMUA score was a 4 and I got rejected from Cambridge. My predicted grades are A* A* A* (Maths, FM, Econ). Will I stand a chance for LSE at all? My other choices are Warwick, UCL and Bath. Also is it too late for me to change my course to Finance for LSE?

I am in similar situation . I applied for Economics and have four predicted A* including further Maths and good personal statement . I got only 3.8 in TMUA . I got interview from Cambridge .

How stupidly overconfident was I to apply for all five choices in UCAS application without getting TMUA score .

I am literally scared as three of my choices need TMUA . Is there any chance Warwick or LSE will even consider me with 3.8 Tmua Score or is it rejection by default .

I believe you can. You can withdraw your application from the university, if you have not yet got an offer or a reception from them. We did that last year for Bsc Physics at Kings college and added Bath for Physics. I am sure you should be able to as well. If you have not yet got a rejection, you should be able to withdraw LSE and then re apply for LSE with finance.

This should be done within 14 days after application is submitted - isn’t it ?

We have done it way after 14 days actually. It’s because Kings was not getting back to us till later March, so needed to sort my Security Choice so, I withdrew Kings and Applied to Bath. I instantly got an offer from Bath.
Please check in your case.

As far as I am aware you can't change a choice after the 14 day cooling off period.

@Admit-One or @PQ may be aware if there are specific exceptions where that might be permitted outside the 14 day cooling off period.

I'm not aware of any exceptions for individual course withdrawals and swaps outside of 14 days. I certainly wouldn't be relying on it.

NB. I think this is a duplicate thread and PQ has already replied elsewhere. It's a bit muddled as to what the thread starter wants to do, but if it is a course change at the same uni then this is done with the uni themselves directly. No need to use UCAS or withdraw anything.

as above
The only exceptions to apply elsewhere beyond 14 days are
1. the university chooses not to run the course in which case they will amend the details and UCAS will reopen the choice
2. withdrawing from all outstanding choices to apply elsewhere using Extra
3. Adding an additional choice because the applicant didn't use all 5 choices originally (and that wouldn't require withdrawing from one of the other choices)

I called UCAS today morning and requested ( pleaded ) to substitute Warwick with another University which doesn’t consider TMUA . They categorically told that University can’t be changed after 14 days ☹️

LSE Economics offer?
