We still have a few spaces available on our Marine Science BSc - including the Arctic Studies and Oceanography with Robotics streams - for entry this September.
What is clearing?
Clearing is the process that allows you to get onto a university programme last minute. If you want to start studying in September 2018 but hold no offer from a university or none that you want to accept, clearing is your way in.
Clearing is for you if you...
- >missed the UCAS application deadline and so haven't applied to university yet
- >were unlucky and didn't get (or fear that you didn't get) the grades you need to meet the conditions offered
- >haven't received an offer for the programmes you applied for
- >have changed your mind and want to study something or somewhere different than before
For more general information and advice on Clearing, please visit the UCAS website.
If you are INTERESTED in studying marine science at SAMS UHI, please look at our programme pages which give a lot of information.
