Clearing is a way for applicants who have received their exam results to secure a place at university starting in September 2025.
This will usually be applicants who:
Haven't already applied to university
Are applying after 30 June 2025
Have applied through UCAS but aren't holding any offers, or none that they want to accept
Have changed their mind about their choice of university or course
Didn’t meet the conditions of their offers or their results are better than expected
Have declined their firm place using the ‘decline my place’ button in UCAS Track
