It\u2019s been a long time coming, a much-anticipated date in the diary, but the wait is almost over\u2026 A-Level results day is just around the corner!<\/p>\n

For those students in Scotland, the SQA results are released on Tuesday 8th<\/sup> August 2017. And for the rest of the UK, A-Level results day is on Thursday 17th<\/sup> August 2017. So, what do you need to do?<\/p>\n

On the morning of results day, you\u2019ll be able to log onto UCAS Track<\/a> to find out whether your firm choice university has confirmed your place on their course or not. For SQA results day, Track opens at 9am, and for A level results day it\u2019s 8am. But remember, you won\u2019t be the only person eager to see if your university place has been confirmed; thousands of students from around the country will be doing the same. So, if the website seems a little slower than usual, just hang on in there.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll be able to check the status of your application online, but UCAS Track won\u2019t give you your grades. Therefore, you\u2019ll need to head to your school or college to get confirmation of your results.<\/p>\n

You should have been informed by your school or college of the arrangements for collecting your results. It\u2019ll be an exciting and nerve raking time, so why not arrange to meet your friends and collect your results together for moral support? And of course, for some of you, your parents or other family members will want to come along to see your achievements.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve got the results, what happens next?<\/h3>\n

If you get the grades you need, and your place at university is confirmed, congratulations! It\u2019s time to celebrate and tell the world \u2013 you\u2019re off to start your new journey at university. But what if you don\u2019t get the grades?<\/p>\n

If you don\u2019t get the grades, don\u2019t be too disheartened; there\u2019s still a number of options out there for you. Firstly, some universities make exceptions. So, even if your grades don\u2019t meet the entry requirements, there\u2019s still a chance you\u2019ll be offered a place on the course at your first or insurance choice university. Secondly, even if they can\u2019t offer you a place on your chosen course, they might offer you a place on a different course within the university.<\/p>\n

And finally, if you don\u2019t receive any offers or don\u2019t meet the requirements of your offers, you can apply for a course through Clearing<\/a>. Here, you\u2019ll be able to find a place on an available course across lots of universities within the UK.<\/p>\n

Whether it\u2019s your firm or insurance place, or you\u2019ve applied through Clearing, if you get a place at university, well done. You\u2019ll no doubt spend the coming weeks after results day getting yourself organised and ready for university. And if by now you\u2019ve still not sorted a place to live while you study, look no further. Here at Host,<\/a> we still have a variety of rooms available in cities across the UK. Take a look at our locations<\/a> or contact us<\/a> for more information and availability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
