What is can you apply for clearing at the same uni?

Yes, it is possible to apply for Clearing at the same university where you initially applied and were either rejected or met the original offer but declined it.

Here's what you need to know:

  • Circumstances: You can apply through Clearing at the same uni if you:

    • Were rejected from all your choices, including that university.
    • Initially met the offer requirements for that university, but declined the offer at the time and now want to reconsider.
    • Applied through UCAS, received offers, but declined them to self-release into Clearing.
  • Contact the University: The most important step is to contact the university's Admissions%20Department directly. Explain your situation. They can advise you on whether they have places available on the courses you're interested in and whether they will consider your application through Clearing, even though you applied previously.

  • Course Availability: Whether they will accept you depends on the course%20availability at that university and their specific Clearing policies. Some universities are more flexible than others.

  • Previous Application: Be prepared to discuss your original application and why you are now interested in Clearing with them. They might want to understand any changes in your situation or reasons for your change of heart.

  • Competition: Remember that Clearing is competitive. Even if you previously met the offer for a course, it doesn't guarantee a place through Clearing.

  • Be Prepared to Explain: If you declined an offer previously, be ready to explain why you are now interested. A convincing explanation can increase your chances.
