Uni of leeds politics clearing

Hi, I have sent my ucas in and had all my offers back, but since then have realised I may have wrongfully not chosen uni of leeds as one of my options. Therefore I am thinking about going through clearing in 2026 instead to get a place. My question is, does anyone know the typical grade drop leeds offer when their Politics BA course is in clearing? and if so how often is it in clearing? Thanks.

All you can do is wait for Clearing next August. No-one - not even Leeds - will have a clue whether or not Politics will need to be in Clearing, and btw, RG Unis rarely drop grade requirements at Clearing.

Russel groups DO drop grade requirements at clearing! I know lots of people who got offers with lower grades than needed and also people who got accepted through clearing with low grades!

If you read my comment again you will find that I stated that "RG Unis rarely drop grade requirements at Clearing" not that they never do.
