Applying through Clearing

Clearing for 2025 entry opened on 5 July for undergraduate students who have their final grades. If students don't have their results yet, they can register their interest in our Clearing vacancies.

Students can apply through Clearing if they meet one of the following criteria:

• They are not holding any offers from universities or colleges.
• Their offers have not been confirmed because they have not met the conditions.
• They have declined or not responded to a changed course/date of entry/point of entry offer.
• They have applied too late for the application to be considered before Clearing.

For Clearing applications or enquiries on behalf of a student, please contact us on agents@cardiff.ac.uk

If your student would like to contact us themselves, please direct them to our Clearing helplines:

Receiving the Offer

Once students receive a verbal offer, the course must be added to their UCAS Hub account by 10:30 (BST) the day after the verbal offer is made. This step generates the official offer letter.

If students have not automatically entered the Clearing process in the UCAS Hub, they, or someone with permission to access their UCAS account, will need to manually self-release on the UCAS Hub before a Clearing offer can be added and accepted.
