If you’re eligible, you’ll see a button in your application called ‘See matches’. Once you hit that, you’ll be able to see a full list of your matches. If you express an interest in a course, that university or college can contact you.
Remember, courses in Clearing fill up quickly, and you may not always receive a call, so we recommend you also keep your options open and look for courses using Clearing.
Here’s an example of how it works. Just remember, the matches are individual to you.
- Rosie receives her exam results.
- Unfortunately, they weren’t the grades she needed for her firm or insurance choices.
- Rosie signs in to her application. She sees a ‘See matches’ button. Once she clicks it there’s a list of her top 50 matches based on her original choices.
- She clicks ‘interested’ on four of her matches.
- She gets a call from one of them. They ask her some questions about why she’d like to study the course and is offered a place.
- Rosie adds the course as a Clearing choice and is off to uni.
