When does Clearing 2024 open?
- Clearing opened for 2024 entry on Friday 5 July
You can start applying for courses in Clearing now, but only if you already have your results.
To apply early, you must:
- have your exams results
- be able to meet the exam results
- not already be holding an offer for a university
All applications must be made through the UCAS hub.
While UCAS Clearing runs from July to October, universities offering places often stop early. At Manchester Met, we close Clearing as soon as our courses fill up so we recommend applying as soon as you get your results.
When are the exam results published?
- Thursday 15 August — A-level results day
This tends to be one of the busiest days of Clearing. Tens of thousands of students will find out whether their results meet the conditions of their offer. If you have yet to find your ideal course, it’s not too late.
Check out our advice on finding a course.
