Course(s) not showing on UCAS!

Need help quick, am cutting it close for application deadline. Have tried to ask through emails but its taking too long.

I am applying to the university of Aberdeen, and want to apply to their biotechnology course. The specific course is BSc Biotechnology (Applied
Molecular Biology) (J700).

During the choice section, I am able to set it to aberdeen university. Then, when I type in 'Bio' only some of their course show. When I type in 'Biotechnology' nothing shows. I have also tried typing in J700 but nothing shows.

I am still within the deadline, so I don't know whats wrong. I've checked online and emailed but nothing is telling me whats going on. Please help.

If you set these up as 'favourites' a while ago, you may need to delete Aberdeen, and re-enter it to be able to select the course choice. This is a known UCAS glitch.

If this doesnt work and you still can't 'find' the right course, then call UCAS 0371 468 0 468 - Monday to Friday, 08:30-18:00 - and they can check the course and tell you what you need to do.

Yes! It's all sorted now. Just incase anyone else is wondering, Aberdeen Univeristy has combined a lot of their biology-esqe courses that had the same year 1 and 2. I was working with outdated information from my college. The course code is C720, not J720
