Here’s everything you need to know about accepting your Clearing offer
Whether you applied through UCAS or directly to us, if you get a verbal offer we will also email you to confirm it with advice on how to accept the offer.
Remember that Clearing places are filled on a first come, first served basis. Your Clearing offer will only remain open while we have places available and can be withdrawn if the course becomes full.
You can accept your offer from 1pm on Thursday 15th August (Level 3 Results Day).

Remember you can only accept one offer and once you accept, your original offer will be removed.
Don’t worry if your UCAS Hub takes a while to update. At busy times and over the weekend it can take up to 48 hours for your confirmation to update on UCAS. Please call us if you have any concerns at all on 023 9284 8090.

What happens after I accept my offer?
We'll be in touch as soon as you accept your offer with details of our Welcome Events and more. Keep an eye on your emails for next steps.
Don’t forget to sort out your accommodation
Once you have firmly accepted your place to study with us, our student housing team will be in touch with details of available accommodation in the area.
Any available hall places are allocated in order of accommodation application receipt, subject to availability – so the sooner you confirm that you will be coming to Portsmouth, the more likely you are to get one of your preferred choices of accommodation.
