First UCAS Away

Today, (well I mean Monday) the first UCAS forms have been sealed and sent off to arrive in time for the 15th October deadline. Everyone else now needs to get the balance right. The sooner you have your application in, the sooner universities can consider you for a place. However, and this is where balance comes in, you need to take all the time you need to ensure that you have applied for courses you would like to study, in places you would like to live, and with a variety of entry requirements so that you will be able to decide on a firm choice and a back up once you have all your offers in.
