If you have an interview clash

We co-ordinate interview weeks with the courses to avoid significant clashes where possible. However, if you are invited to two interviews on the same day please contact the courses concerned to discuss this.

• Please see the Courses section for contact details for individual courses

If they are unable to help, please contact us for guidance.

• Please see the Contact Us page for our details

Withdrawing from an interview or reserve list

If you wish to withdraw from an interview, or from an interview reserve list:

• login to your application
• choose Withdraw for the appropriate course(s)
• click Confirm Action

Confirming will automatically inform the course(s) concerned.

Reserve lists for interviews

If your application is "Reserve for Interview" you are on a reserve list for that course. Reserve lists allow courses to fill interview slots when an invitation to interview is declined.

If an interview becomes available

If an interview slot becomes available for you, the course will contact you by email or by phone and give you further details. Your email software may treat emails from the courses as junk or spam, so please check your Junk/Spam Email folder(s) regularly.

The course will also update your application from "Reserve for Interview" to "Invited to Interview".

Interview results

The Clearing House does not make decisions about who is offered a place: this is done by the courses.

• Please see the Courses section for details about the selection procedure and feedback policy of individual courses

If you have had an interview, your Application will change to one of the following:

• Place Offered (see Next Page for details)

• Unsuccessful at Interview
