Clearing at Kingston University
What is Clearing?
Clearing is a UCAS service which is available between July and September each year. It is an additional opportunity for applicants to apply for a university course if they haven't already been accepted on one.
There are many reasons why you might find yourself eligible to use Clearing:
- you may have been offered a place at university but didn't get the grades you needed to be accepted; or
- perhaps you have rejected any offers you did receive because you changed your mind about the course or location you want to study; or
- you may already have your exam results, but have not applied for a course place yet.
Whatever your situation, Clearing is an opportunity for you to find the right course and the right university to suit you.
