Change insurance choice

I firmed KCL for a media course and insured city St George’s for media production.

I’d like to change my insurance choice to media and communications at city St George’s instead of production.

Do you think I can do this before results day incase I don’t get into my firm? Is it possible or do I go through clearing then on results day

City St George's might be able to do this before the JCQ embargo begins tomorrow. You will need to call them ASAP.

If they can't get it done in time, you can always ask them about a swap from results day onwards if necessary.

If the entry requirements are the same and the course is based in the same department then often the answer will be a yes. The main issue here is timing, as Admit-One mentioned above, unless this is done by St George's this afternoon then this change won't be able to be made until Results Day or afterwards due to the UCAS embargo. If you wait until results day, you'll be competing on the phones with every other bugger who wants to speak to them. Better to do it this afternoon. :wink:

Oh no, I didn’t see this until now, I suppose I’ll have to deal with it on results day if I have to

As mentioned, St George's would be a little unkind to say no to you, but technically they can.

See if they will speak to you on the phone tomorrow, start by saying "I am not looking for a clearing offer, I want to transfer from this course to this course, can this be noted next to my application if I am placed with you?"
Obviously, there's a very sizeable chance they will say they can't discuss this with you and may not even pick up the phone. However technically speaking the above conversation would not be in breach of the embargo.
