How does the user name work for the UCAS application thing.
What format is it in? E.g. First initial, space, surname etc.?


first initial, surname then a number usualy 1 or 2

it's changed from last year, then it was just your apliccation number. e.g., mine was 03-047395-1
I think they mean when you are applying to UCAS, rather than tracking your progress.

My applying user name was Initial Name 1 (ie jsmith1)

My tracking progress user name/number is like yours (04-006127-2) which they sent on a form telling me "UCAS has my application".

Jolly fun!

this must be something new, because we didn't get usernames last year.

My sixth form used the Internet system last year, but we didn't get usernames. We just used the UCAS number to sign into the website.
