How Clearing works
New to Clearing? We have put together a step-by-step guide.
Haven't applied to university yet
Clearing allows you to find courses with places still available.
You can use Clearing to apply for a course if you aren’t already holding an offer from a university or college.
In 2024 Clearing starts on 5 July and closes on 17 October at 6pm. Here you will find plenty of useful resources to offer advice and support, and to help you make the best decisions for your future.
You can also use Clearing if:
- you're applying after 30 June
- you didn't receive any offers (or none you wanted to accept)
- you didn't meet the conditions of your offers
- you've declined your firm place using the ‘decline my place’ button in your UCAS Hub.
If you don't fall into one of the above categories, get in touch, and we'll do our best to find a course to suit you.
