Clearing is a flexible, supportive route into higher education, giving you the chance to secure a place on the right course for you, even if your plans have changed.
Whether you’re applying for the first time, your results weren’t what you expected, or you’ve simply changed your mind about what or where you want to study, Clearing lets you explore new possibilities.
There’s still time to apply to study with us this September, but applications received after 2 July will be automatically entered through Clearing if you:
- are applying to university for the first time;
- don’t hold any offers from universities;
- have declined your offers from universities.
Join a community of performers, producers, artists and innovators and build a future in music in a city full of creative opportunity.
