Step By Step Guide

1. Choose a course or subject

and call us on 0808 281 1111

2. Find out if we can offer you a place

When you call the Clearing hotline we will go through a few questions to determine your eligibility, you may receive a verbal offer of a place over the phone meaning we’re confident that you meet the academic requirements of the course.

3. Submit your fully completed application form

Any changes to your university or course choice will need to be updated as soon as possible with student finance – delays in updating them can result in your loan payments being late.
