What is Clearing?
Clearing is the process universities use to accept students on courses with places still available - which according to UCAS is over 30,000 courses.
How does Clearing work?
Students can apply for a course through Clearing if they’re not already holding a university or college offer, and the course still has places available.
Clearing can be used by students applying after June 30, students who didn’t receive any offers or none they wanted to accept, students who didn’t meet the conditions of their offers and who’ve declined their firm place.
