A level results day question

LOL I think you miss understood. No one told them universities would contact him, we advised he called the universities and asked about clearing places and also know that it absolutely and totally allowed


No one is speaking about poaching applicant from another university. But a applicant can certainly contact any university and say there grades, ask whats available and then if the university would say they would consider that applicant they if they wish to risk it can reject their offers and apply through clearing to that university. Which is TOTALLY allowed 😆

If they can get a written agreement I totally agree but at least have them say on the phone if not written but, it is NOT against the rules for a university to talk to a student who applied and has offers elsewhere if that applicant contacts them.

See the UCAS business rules. If a university doesn’t keep written records of clearing enquiries then they are forbidden from talking to applicants who are placed elsewhere.

not if they have not accepted the offer they are not. Anyway this is not helpful the applicant will find out themselves, Wont affect them in anyway to call and find out XD

Hi, say i got my results and got the grades for a uni i applied for e.g. brunel but i have better grades and i want to try get into a better uni e.g. southampton. Should i go through clearing or adjustment and what are the differences if i want to apply to a relatively new course called mechatronics in the better uni.*

Thanks everyone, just one more thing. When you apply through clearing or maybe over the phone, does the university check your personal statement or are the grades the only thing they are interested in.
