University application problem
My friend applied for university got all offers back and made Southampton first choice and Bournemouth second choice. Only now realised that the Southampton one said 2026 is it too late to change it to 2025 start date or is it too late. They have already contacted the university so is it up to them?

Its usually a very straight forward switch at this stage.
Your friend just needs to phone the Uni on Monday - phoning is always quicker than waiting weeks for an answer to an email.

Hi @Guebfjcneif, definitely one for the admissions team but I think it'll be ok. I hope it's all sorted for them!
