Clearing Fast Track

So, what is clearing?

In England, most undergraduate students apply for University before the end of January - before they get their results.

However, this isn't always the case. Clearing is an opportunity for you to apply to study in the UK after you have already had your exam results, or if you've just taken a bit more time to consider all of your options.

This means that you can be more confident in your decision making, and go through a far quicker application process. You could apply now and be living and studying in the UK by September.

What courses can I apply for?

You’ll find our course vacancies on our website, and you can apply online. If you want to talk through your options, just give our friendly team a call on +44 (0)1227 768 896 and they’ll be happy to help.

When can I apply?

Clearing opens in July and closes in August. If we make you an offer we'll just need you to confirm your results with us as soon as you have them.
