Students to Receive Eagerly Anticipated A-Level Results
UCAS says clearing can help students find remaining university places, with some institutions taking unlimited applications and offering contact by phone or WhatsApp.
- On Thursday, hundreds of thousands of students across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland receive A-level results, determining whether they progress to university, apprenticeships, or work.
- Nearly 22,700 courses with vacancies were available on the Ucas clearing site as of Wednesday, with 18 of the 24 elite Russell Group universities offering more than 3,400 spots for English residents.
- Jamie Bradford, head of future students at Leicester De Montfort University, advises students to have results in hand before contacting institutions and to "work up a priority list" rather than rush.
- Education Secretary Lucy Powell announced reintroduced maintenance grants and increased loans to support students, though sector leaders warned "growing pressure" from cost-of-living concerns influences clearing choices.
- The Department for Education estimates nearly 58,000 18-year-olds in England will receive no results today after dropping out, while 1.01 million young people aged 16 to 24 remain out of work or education.
