Start your research before A level results day and have a backup plan if you don’t do quite as well as you expect.
Clearing is the last chance for you to secure your place at the University of Plymouth for September, but there is still time to consider your options and make a decision that is right for you.
Stay calm and take your time
UCAS won't allow you to make any new applications until 3pm on results day so there is time for you to phone universities and consider your options on results day before you commit to any decisions.
Consider your options
If you need to find a new course, think about courses that are like the one you originally applied for. Studying joint honours or a degree with a foundation year might be the right option for you.
Keep an open mind
You may eventually settle for a course that is completely different to the one you originally applied for but it may work out much better than you expect.
Remember: have your results and a copy of your personal statement to hand when speaking to our Admissions team about your application.
You can only make one Clearing application through UCAS Hub and you must have a verbal offer to do so.
