Ucas and university confirmed without maths!

Hello all just a quick question. I applied for mental health nursing, and got offered, pending successful completion of my access to health and social care course and maths at GCSE or equivalent. However, from today, my place has been confirmed, even though I have not yet submitted my maths results, which I'm currently doing via a local study group with results and exams due first week of September. I have been able to register myself on the university website, following confirmation from ucas, so does this mean the maths wasn't essential after all?

Congratulations on your offer 🙂 You may wish to contact the Uni directly to confirm the Maths requirement and your result

Hi!

Congratulations - that's great news that your place has been confirmed :biggrin:

That's interesting, was it part of your offer conditions just from the university or is this a prerequisite of the course, as it's nursing, from the accreditation body? Do you know? No worries if you don't but it may help understand why this has happened

Hi @Tsobo1980 Congratulations on getting your place confirmed! It would be a good idea to double check with your university admission team just to be certain there are no outstanding conditions or deadlines. That way you are completely sure everything is in order before term starts

Many thanks. It was part of the condition by the actual university. That's why I'm surprised that they have now confirmed without the maths. Are they likely to backtrack or this means I'm good to go? Anyone been in a similar situation?

Only the university will be able to advise if it was done in error, contact them to confirm as we won't be able to help without access to your application sadly.

I'd get in contact with them today if you can and discuss this - just in case this was an error and they missed that you were still awaiting your results for one element of your offer so you want to double check if the confirmation was correct or not. Hopefully they can advise you on next steps - let us know what they say!
