Understanding Clearing
Clearing is the process universities use to fill remaining course places. You can apply via Clearing from 5th July, if you:
- Have received no offers (or none you want to accept)
- Didn’t meet your offer conditions
- Declined your place via UCAS Hub
- Are applying after 30th June
How Clearing works
If you already have your exam results, and you did not submit a UCAS application in the main scheme, you can use Clearing now!
If you have had conditional offers, but didn’t achieve the grades you needed for your initial UCAS choices, you can use Clearing from 8:30am on Results Day (Thursday 15th August) when universities and colleges place a list of their vacancies on the UCAS website. You will be able to add a choice from 1pm on this day.
BIMM courses available through Clearing
We’ve published a full list of BIMM Music Institute courses which still have vacancies, which you can browse via the UCAS search tool.
Clearing Accommodation Support Bursary
Our Clearing Accommodation Support Bursary is available to support students who join us through Clearing. The bursary aims to support you with your living and commuting costs. If you’re eligible, you’ll be awarded £1,000 in your first year of study only.
