Suspended studies, re-applying to UCAS ?

Hi, due to personal circumstances, I suspended my studies this past term in my first year, with my uni expecting me to return next September. Does anyone know if I can reapply to UCAS this week to different unis, & will I lose my place if I do? thanks

No, it won't make any difference to your current enrolment status.

On your application you'll have to declare your current study, and your choices will most likely want a reference form your current uni however. It's not an uncommon request for a tutor and again, doesn't commit you to leaving.

Hi, were you able to suspend and do a UCAS application seperately or no? Thank you!

You can apply elsewhere whilst you’re enrolled at another uni. Whether you are studying, suspended or on a temporary withdrawal makes no difference.
