Helping a student apply through Clearing
Your guide to helping a student to navigate Clearing – as a parent, guardian, family member, teacher, school counsellor or education agent.
Applying through Clearing can be a stressful, confusing or upsetting experience for many students, and may mean rethinking their study plans. Support and guidance from their family or education professionals can help them get though the process and make a bright start to their university life.
Join our online information session that will explain what Clearing is, how it can benefit you, what you need to do before you can apply and why Nottingham is one of the best student cities in the world.
Date: Thursday 8 August 5-6pm (UK time)
Clearing applications should usually be made by the students themselves rather than parents, agents or other persons. Under UCAS policies and data protection rules, we can only discuss your child's or student's application if you are a nominated contact in their UCAS application. See our privacy policy.
