CLEARING 2026 TOP TIPS
Before Results Day
Just like you did with your original choices, consider, for example, course content and structure, academic facilities, social life, distance from home, sports facilities and living costs. You may be relieved to be offered an alternative course, but you still need to choose the right course at the right university for you.
You do not have to go for the same subject you initially applied for, but if you do go for something different, the University may still expect you to have specific A Level subjects. If your preferred choice of course is full, look at related alternatives, for example, for Medicine consider Medical Science or Biomedical Science.
You can contact Bangor by filling in the online Clearing form, by phoning the Clearing Helpline on 0800 085 1818 or, during the A-Level results period, you can get in touch over Live Chat.
When speaking to universities, have your UCAS application number, Clearing number, course codes, your A Level results and relevant GCSE results to hand as the staff will ask for these. We will also need your contact details and e-mail address so we can send you your Clearing offer in writing.
On Results Day
If possible, do not be on holiday or at work, keep the day free to contact universities. You need to be available to speak to admissions tutors and make decisions yourself 鈥 your parents, teachers and friends cannot do it for you. If you must work that day or are away travelling or on holiday, it鈥檚 worth giving your parent/guardian nominated access to your UCAS application details so that they can speak on your behalf.
You may not have got the grades or points score that you needed, but your Firm or Insurance choice university may still decide to accept you onto the course. Contact them first and do not just assume that you are in Clearing. If they decide not to accept you, or if you are not holding offers at any institution, you are eligible to apply for a place through Clearing.
Applicants making applications after 30th June are automatically entered into Clearing and are also eligible.
You鈥檒l know that you are in Clearing if your UCAS application states 鈥榊ou are in Clearing鈥 or 鈥楥learing has started鈥. If you are in Clearing, you must contact universities directly to enquire about available places on their courses and whether you meet their requirements.
