A-level results day is finally upon us, marking the end of two years of revision, coursework and exams for youngsters.
While it can mean landing a spot at your dream university, others may not have achieved the grades they hoped for – and that is where university clearing comes in.
Clearing, which runs from July 5 to October 21 this year, sees universities fill the remaining places on their undergraduate courses and is accessed through the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS).
With that in mind, we have put together a list of some of the many universities which will open their doors to prospective students once more as part of the clearing process.
