Suspending studies and applying to UCAS
Hi, because of circumstances, I have to suspended my studies in my first year, to return next September. Does anyone know if I can reapply to UCAS this week to different unis and my current uni (for another course), or will I not be able to as im going to suspended my studies? Thanks so much!

Answered the first bit in the other thread you bumped.
“You can apply elsewhere whilst you’re enrolled at another uni. Whether you are studying, suspended or on a temporary withdrawal makes no difference.”
With regards to applying to another course at your current uni you’d do this as an internal transfer rather than via UCAS. Whether you can do this whilst suspended depends on the circumstances of your suspension and your unis specific rules.

It's certainly worth OP talking to the department concerned regarding an internal transfer; but a university might (at least in some circumstances) require a student to apply via UCAS.

I e heard of a couple of unis asking students to do this, but it is a pointless hoop to jump through and wastes the student’s money. Beats me.
