We will not be recruiting through Clearing this year and we are closed to applicants via Adjustment.

You will need to log on to UCAS track to see if Imperial has confirmed your place. If your status on track is unconditional firm, your place has been confirmed.

If your grades have changed as a result of a formal appeal process and you now meet your offer conditions, you should send official confirmation of your new grades to the relevant admissions team.

Adjusted grades through appeals will be accepted up to 31 August. Adjusted grades received after this date will only be accepted if there are spaces available at the department you have applied to.

If your grades are adjusted but you still do not fulfil all of your offer conditions our original decision will still stand.

Congratulations on your offer! Fortunately, there is nothing you need to do.

If your status has been changed to unconditional on UCAS there is nothing you need to do to secure your place at Imperial. We look forward to sending you further details about registering with the College nearer to the start of term.

The deadline for sending us mitigating circumstances was 16 July 2021.

We will not normally consider mitigating circumstances if they are submitted after the exam results are published. However, if something happened to you during the year or exam period that affected your exam performance, please send an email to the relevant Admissions Team with the following information: 

1. An outline of the circumstances that affected your performance, including dates or time periods if possible.

2. Any medical documentation or school letters that can be provided as evidence.

These will then be passed to the Admissions Tutor for consideration.

Documentary evidence must be submitted for any circumstances to be considered.

If you wish to change programmes within the Department you are currently holding an offer for, then please contact the relevant Admissions Team to see if this is possible at this stage.

Most programmes offered within a given department share a common year 1 curriculum and it is usually possible to change your programme at any stage up to the end of year 1. It may be better for you to transfer programme within your department as a student, rather than late in the admissions process, as this can delay enrolment and the issuing of CAS where this is required. We advise that you discuss this with your department for guidance.

If you wish to move to a programme within a different Department it is very unlikely that this will be considered as programmes are generally full. However, please do contact the relevant Admissions Team in the first instance.

We check all exam results extremely carefully, but if you believe we have made a mistake please contact the relevant Admissions Team team as soon as possible. Please note, you must meet the exact terms of your offer and all specified deadlines in order for us to confirm your place.

If you have not met the exact grades/subject specifications, but have achieved an equivalent tariff score across your grades, this is not the same as meeting the exact terms we specify, as our offers are not tariff based.

Sometimes results are not sent to us by UCAS.  If you have a copy of your results, please forward them to the relevant Admissions Team so we can make a decision on your application. If you don’t have your results you will need to contact your school/college in the first instance to see if there is a problem, and then contact UCAS to find out if the results are available.

The deadline associated with your conditions will be specified in your offer details. Results need to be sent by these deadlines. If we are missing certain results and are holding your application under active consideration, we will contact you to request that you send these.

If you applied this cycle and you now wish to defer please send an email requesting this to the relevant Admissions Team. Please note, deferrals cannot be guaranteed. If we do defer your place it is unlikely that we will be able to reverse this decision, so please be aware of this before you make your final deferral decision. If a deferral is not granted, your options will be to either take up your place this year, or withdraw and reapply for reconsideration in the next admissions cycle.

If your offer is still showing as conditional, there may be a few explanations. We may still be waiting to receive all your results. If you were asked to meet a certain qualification, it is your responsibility to submit these to us – we cannot confirm an offer without verifying these results. Please contact the relevant Admissions Team to submit outstanding results.

If you have any queries about Accommodation please visit the accommodation website.

We are hoping to have issued the majority of CAS numbers for unconditional offer holders by 21 August, where an applicant has indicated that they need a visa and have provided us with their passport details.

If you have not yet provided us with your passport details, please do this via MyImperial, without delay. Once we have received your passport it will take two to three working days for your CAS to be issued.

Help can be found from our International Student Support team.

If you have not received your exam results we cannot issue them to you. As a matter of urgency you should contact your school as they will be able to provide you with your results.  

It is not possible to appeal directly to the Admissions Tutors at this time of the year.  Due to competition for places we are only able to guarantee places to those who have met all the terms of their offer.  If spaces were available after we had allocated them to those who met the terms of their offer then the Admissions Tutor we will have considered very carefully those who narrowly missed the terms of their offer. If your status on UCAS is unsuccessful, then that is the final outcome on your application following reconsideration by the Admissions Tutor.

If Imperial is your Firm Choice:

If you have narrowly missed the conditions of our offer, Imperial will review your case. In some circumstances it may be possible for the offer to be confirmed. If we decide to confirm your offer, UCAS Track will let you know. If you are unsuccessful at Imperial, you will be considered by your Insurance Choice.

If Imperial is your Insurance Choice:

If you are unsuccessful at your firm choice and have narrowly missed the conditions of our offer, then Imperial will review your case and in some circumstances it may be possible for the offer to be confirmed. UCAS Track will let you know if we decide to confirm your offer.

If you have missed the conditions of both your firm and insurance choice, you will be entered into Clearing.

If you secured an unconditional offer with your firm institution, it is unfortunately not possible to switch to Imperial at this stage.

If you have secured an unconditional place with Imperial and now wish to go to your insurance choice this may not be possible. You should first approach your insurance institution to see if they would be willing to accept you via clearing.

If they confirm that they will accept you, then you can release yourself into clearing via UCAS track up to the 31 August. After this date, you would need to write to Imperial’s admissions team to request that they release you into clearing. You will then need to refer yourself in clearing to your insurance choice. 

We are sorry that you no longer wish to come to Imperial. If you wish to enter into Clearing, you can release yourself into clearing using your UCAS track up to 10 September. After this date, you would need to write to Imperial’s admissions team to request that they release you into Clearing.

If you have previously declined your offer then this offer is no longer valid.  We would not be able to reinstate the offer at this stage of the admissions cycle. We would only be in a position to consider an application via clearing or adjustment for eligible applicants, subject to us advertising that a programme is open to applications via clearing or adjustment.

Imperial does not operate waiting lists. If you wish to be considered by Imperial, you would need to apply to the College in the next admissions cycle.

All contact details need to be updated on UCAS Track and this will update both UCAS and our systems. It may take a couple of days for these changes to be reflected on all our systems.

If you think we have assessed your fee status incorrectly, you should complete a Fee Status Questionnaire and send it to the relevant Admissions Team.
