UCAS
The wait for decisions on your application can be agonising. It’s a good idea to use this time effectively by familiarising yourself with the decisions the unis you’ve applied to could make, so you know what to expect and what to do when the time comes.Each university and college will make their decisions at different times, meaning you might hear back before your friends do, or vice versa. However, there are deadlines by which they have to decide:
- 6 May 2020 – if you sent your application by 15 January 2020
- 13 July 2020 – if you sent your application by 30 June 2020
- 20 October 2020 – this is the final deadline for unis to make decisions on applications to courses starting in 2020
If a uni you’ve applied to doesn’t make a decision by the appropriate deadline, that choice will be automatically made unsuccessful.
Good luck with your application!
