What to do if you missed out the first UCAS application deadline?
The first round of UCAS applications has ended and the Fair Judgement Period has officially ended. For students who still want to apply, what problems do they need to face and how should they respond. You can still apply to five universities on UCAS.
This article will break down the factors to help you consider applying after January 25th. It can be referred to as the Unfair Judgement Period.
📌 Question 1️⃣ Vacancies - The universities that you want to apply to may have already completed their first round of admissions, but the school may not update the vacancies on UCAS in time, resulting in wasted spots. Before applying, contact our consultants to inquire about the remaining vacancies at your preferred universities. Don't waste your choices on UCAS.
📌 Question 2️⃣ Subjectivity - Have you written a good Personal Statement? Are you well-prepared for the Interview? Does your portfolio meet the requirements of the universities you want to apply to? All of these are subjective factors that universities can use to reject an application. If you want to avoid these problems, prepare the relevant documents before applying and discuss them in detail with our consultants.
📌 Question 3️⃣ Competition - In recent years, the number of students applying to study in the UK has increased significantly, resulting in increased competition for university places. During the unfair judgement period, universities will compare predicted grades among students and decide who to offer a place to. Therefore, you need to have a strategy and avoid overly competitive applications, and differentiate which universities to apply at different stages.
📌 Question 4️⃣ Tradition - In the past, students used to wait until their results were released to apply for clearing. Combining the above three problems, you should understand that university places are reserved for those who are prepared and taking early action can avoid the hassle of applying in July.
Parents and students should consider and plan carefully before applying.
