Clearing lets you search for and apply to universities that still have places available once you have received your results.

It's a great opportunity to find the right university for you. This could be because your results are not what you expected or you decide to apply after the UCAS and UCAS Extra deadlines.

Clearing process for Nursing and Occupational Therapy applicants

Applicants for Nursing and Occupational Therapy who come through clearing will need to follow a slightly different process to other courses, as we need to interview applicants and also to run DBS and Medical checks before full acceptance.

Don’t be put off by this, as we will help and support you through the process.

We will be very happy to receive applications for Nursing and Occupational Therapy before  Thursday 15 August. In fact, we would recommend that you apply before results day as we will be able to pre–interview applicants whether they have their results or not.

All that you need to do is to make an application. You can do this by calling us on 01904 876 598 or by using our online application form.

We will then assess your application and if we can, we will offer you an online interview before results day. If you already have your results, we will immediately be able to progress to running your DBS and Medical checks.

If you are still waiting for results, all that we would need you to do is to confirm them to us on results day once you have them. If you are pre–interviewed, it will take a bit of the stress away from results day.

Results day is on Thursday 15 August and it will be an exciting and busy day for us. We will have a knowledgeable, supportive team on hand to help you through the process if you are applying for Nursing or Occupational Therapy on results day.

Our clearing hotline will open at 8.00am on Thursday 15 August. Please give us a call and select the specialist courses option from the menu. That will get you straight through to the Nursing and Occupational Therapy admissions team. They will take your personal details and your results. If we are able to, we will start our online interviews on results day from 10.00am.

Once you have had your interview, we will quickly let you know the outcome. If you are successful and want to take up the offer, we will start you on the DBS and Medical process so that we can fully accept you.

As well as having an interview, we must run DBS (criminal record) checks and a Medical check on all Nursing and Occupational Therapy applicants before they are fully accepted.

We will send you full instructions and will support you through this process if you are successful at your interview. Please look out for follow up information after your interview. We will be contacting applicants via email, using the address provided when we take the initial application.

Throughout the process, out team will be on hand to answer questions and to support you.

Don't let the stress of exams and applying to university get on top of you. I didn't get the grades I needed and ended up applying through Clearing and I couldn't be happier. The community feel you get since the university is smaller than most others makes it a much more pleasant environment to study in!
