UCAS
At Chislehurst Sixth Form we have a tailored programme to support students with their UCAS applications to their chosen universities. Students have group taught sessions, as well as individual tailored sessions to support them with their UCAS form and personal statements. Students continue to receive support and advice, including on accommodation, final choices and clearing, after they have applied to UCAS. Following applications, students may be eligible to use ‘Clearing’ or ‘Clearing Plus’ within UCAS and apply to new courses. The following link has further information:
