Add a Clearing Choice Within the Allotted Time You can only enter a Clearing choice on UCAS Track after 5pm on results day. In addition, most universities will give you a time period (typically 12-48 hours) for which their offer is valid. If you enter a clearing choice after this period has passed then the university may reject you.


But don’t jump the gun! It’s crucial that you only enter a Clearing choice on Track if you have spoken to the university or college and they have provisionally offered you a place on the course. Enter a Clearing choice without discussing it with the university or college and it will get rejected – but it might take a while. This can significantly delay the progress of your application, wasting valuable time as other Clearing places are taken up.


You can only add one Clearing choice at a time, so only add a choice if you are sure you want to accept the verbal offer you have been given by the university. You cannot add a Clearing choice until at least 5pm on results day so there is plenty of time for you to make sure that you are happy with your choice and comfortable with studying at your chosen university for three or four years.


Go back to your prepared notes of where you are flexible and where you are not prepared to compromise. If you are not totally sure then don’t forget there are alternatives. You can always take a gap year and reapply.


All the best with your exam results!
