Apply through Clearing

We have vacancies for International and Home applicants when Clearing opens on 5 July

Some of our vacancies are only available for International applicants as we currently have no spaces in Clearing for Home applicants for these courses.

If you have a confirmed place at another University

What you should do if you have another offer but are considering Bath


You can only submit a Clearing application on UCAS if you are not holding a place elsewhere.

If you want to apply for a vacancy at Bath, you should contact us to find out if we can make you a provisional offer. Once this is confirmed, you can then release yourself into Clearing on your UCAS Hub.

You should not decline your place until you have a confirmed Clearing offer.
