What should I do for Clearing on results day?

Whatever your Results Day outcome, there are options available. Whether you've got the grades you expected, missed your offer, changed your mind or haven't applied yet, Clearing could help you find the right course. Our Clearing team is here to help you understand your next steps.

I got the grades I expected

Congratulations!

If you've met the conditions of your offer and you're happy with your university and course, you don't need to use Clearing.

If you've changed your mind, you may still be able to explore alternative options through Clearing.

I missed the grades I expected

Don't panic.

Missing your offer doesn't necessarily mean you can't go to university.

Check your UCAS status, explore available courses and speak to universities about your options. Depending on your qualifications, you may also wish to consider related courses or Foundation Year routes.

I've changed my mind

If you've decided you'd like to study a different course or attend a different university, Clearing may still be an option. Before making any changes, take time to research your alternatives and understand how they could affect your current offer.

I haven't applied yet

It's not too late.

If you haven't applied to university, you may still be able to apply through Clearing for courses with places available.
