SAC Learning

What happens once you have submitted your application to UCAS?

When you apply to SAC, UCAS will send us a copy of your application. We will then consider your application and decide whether or not we can make you an offer.

It is not general practice for SAC to interview applicants, but we usually recommend that you attend one of our Open Days before you make any decision on an offer. These are run regularly throughout the year and will help you decide whether studying at SAC is right for you.

We will write to you once an offer has been made with an invitation to an Open Day.

Decisions

When SAC receives your UCAS application and it has been considered, you will receive a response through the UCAS system (UCAS Track).

If SAC has to cancel a course we will contact you directly and help you find another.

If you decide to withdraw from your offer, UCAS will write to you asking you to confirm the reason for your withdrawal.

Types of offers

UCAS will inform you whether SAC has decided to give you an unconditional or conditional offer, they will tell you the year and month your course starts, and the point of entry.

UCAS will also inform you if SAC has rejected your application.

Unconditional offer (U)

This means that you have already met all the entrance requirements for the course. SAC will contact you if we require proof of your qualifications.

Conditional offer (C)

This means that we have made you an offer that depends on certain conditions. Usually you must get certain grades in your forthcoming exams.

We may specify other requirements such as financial, medical, or English language conditions that you must meet before the start of the course, and your UCAS offer will include these.

If you have any queries relating to offers you have been made, please contact the Admissions Office.
