Opening soon: Clearing 2024

What is Clearing?

Clearing is your opportunity to apply for a university level course if you’re not already holding an offer, or if you want to apply for a different programme altogether.

Whether you’ve had a change of heart since making your original application, or if you’ve only just decided to apply for a degree programme, Clearing could be the way forward.

Here’s what to do if you have already submitted an application through UCAS

If you’ve already applied through UCAS you can use Clearing if:

  • you didn’t receive any offers (or don’t have any you want to accept)
  • you didn’t meet the conditions of your offers
  • you declined your firm place and want to look for something else

Applying for a new course through Clearing is easy, just follow the steps below.

  1. if you need to, make sure that you decline any offers that you are currently holding
  2. find a degree that you’re interested in

If you’re still looking for the perfect course, make sure you check out our university level courses in all sorts of areas, from Performing Arts to Engineering and beyond! Plus, we also offer a variety of different qualifications types, so if a more hands-on HTQ is more suited to you than a three-year Bachelors degree, we’ve got you covered.

  1. Once you’ve found a course that you like the look of, make sure to read up on the content and make sure that it sounds like the right fit for you
  2. Add your Clearing choice to your UCAS application (click here for more details on how to do this!)
  3. Our Admissions Team will pass this on to the relevant department for review
  4. Once our teaching team have looked at your application, we will then accept you on to the programme so that you can begin the enrolment process and get ready to start your new university-level course!

Here’s what to do if you haven’t applied yet

If you have yet to submit an application, you can still apply through clearing! Here’s what to do:

  1. First things first, you need to register on UCAS and make an application. Unlike applying before Clearing, you’ll only be able to add a choice after you’ve submitted your application
  2. Find a course that you’re interested in. You can check UCAS for course vacancies or have a look right here on our website. We have university level courses in all sorts of areas, from Bakery & Patisserie Technology to Health and Social Care and beyond! 
  3. Our Admissions Team will pass this on to the relevant department for review
  4. Once our teaching team have looked at your application, we will then accept you on to the programme so that you can begin the enrolment process and get ready to start your new university-level course!
