What happens next?

In 2009, UCAS have introduced a new electronic version of Clearing. If you are in Clearing, please follow this advice very carefully.

If the tutor is interested in your application, you will be asked to submit yourself to the university electronically, through your UCAS track account. You do this by clicking on the Clearing button at the bottom of the Track account screen

Once you have clicked on this button, you will be taken to a further screen where you can add the institution code (City University London is C60), the course code, the campus code (for City University London, it is "Main Site"), the point of entry (normally "1") and the start date (normally "01 September 09"). Once you have completed this and click on the "Next" button, UCAS will submit this application to the university.

Please do not submit a Clearing Application to the university via UCAS Track unless an admissions tutor asks you to.

All offers are made subject to the receipt of your electronic Clearing Application and any other verification of qualifications the university may require. As the UCAS instructions explain, any offer made orally or in writing is unofficial until we have received your electronic Clearing Application and we have told UCAS electronically about your place.

 

If you're successful and we want to make you an offer, we will tell UCAS of our decision electronically, and this will appear on your UCAS track account.

From that point, you won't be allowed to deal with any other university in the scheme - so make that you're certain of your decision.

 

If we can't offer you a place, we will return you into Clearing electronically and you can approach another university.

 

Good luck! Our operators are waiting for your call.
