What happens next?

You will receive instructions via email about how to make a formal application to us. Once we have received this, we will make you an official offer and confirm your place.  

When will I find out about enrolment? 

After you have accepted your place to study at Derby, we will send information about enrolment and starting your degree to the email address you used to apply. There will also be a link that will give you the date, time and location of your course introduction. You can find more information about preparing to start university on our Welcome pages

Yes. You don't have to wait for the university you're currently holding an offer with to release you; you're now able to do this yourself through UCAS Hub.  

The process for releasing yourself into Clearing is straightforward, but please ensure you definitely want to decline your current offer before you do this. If you accidentally release yourself, contact the university as soon as possible to discuss your options.   

  1. Sign into UCAS Hub, where you will see a 'Decline my place' button on your homepage
  2. You will be taken to a page explaining what you are about to do, which will ask you to confirm your decision
  3. You will then receive an email confirming that you have been released and can now apply to other universities in Clearing 

Log in to UCAS Hub and check that you have added the course and institution details to your Clearing application. Some updates occur overnight, so please allow 24 hours for your application to be processed.
