Results day

Whether you’ve met your offer conditions, are exploring Clearing, or just need a bit of guidance, we’re here to help you navigate every part of Results Day with confidence. From checking UCAS Track to understanding what to do if things didn’t go as planned, this page has everything you need to take the next step.

When is results day?

• Students in Scotland get their SQA results on Tuesday 5 August 2025
• A-levels results come out on Thursday 14 August 2025
• International Baccalaureate results day is 6 July 2025

Should you send us your results? Here’s what to check.

You don’t need to send us your results if you live in Scotland, England, Northern Island or Wales. We receive them directly from the awarding body.

Please send us your results if you’re studying a different qualification such as an HNC/HND or are an EU/International student. You should email a clear, high-quality copy along with a short covering note that includes your name and personal ID to: undergraduate@uws.ac.uk. Just a heads-up: we can’t accept screenshots or downloads—make sure it’s an official copy of your results.

Results day - Step by step

Check UCAS Track

Once your exam results are in, UCAS Track is the place to check your offer status.

Met your conditions? Great news! We’ll confirm your place with UCAS, and they’ll update your offer status. 

Didn’t quite meet the conditions? Don’t worry—UCAS will let you know if you are able to apply through clearing and pass your results to your insurance choice, who’ll take it from there.

I've met the conditions of my offer

Congratulations on securing your place at UWS, we’re so excited to welcome you to campus!

We’ll be sending you your Final Certificate of Acceptance soon- it confirms your place and includes everything you need to know about registering as a student.

I've not met the conditions of my offer

If things didn’t go to plan, don’t worry—Clearing might be the perfect opportunity. We may still have spaces available on some of our courses.

Every year, lots of students find a course they love through Clearing!

Here’s what to do:

1. Check our Clearing pages to see which courses are available.
2. Have your UCAS Clearing number ready—you’ll need it when you call.
3. Call us on 0800 027 1000 - please phone rather than email so we can help you faster.

Receiving a Clearing offer

You may receive a verbal offer over the phone when you call us. 

You now have your place at University! You can accept this offer from your UCAS account after 5pm on Results Day.
