You are taking resits

Your application may have been unsuccessful because you are taking resits.

Resitting exams can put your application at a disadvantage due to the number of applications we receive from students who have achieved or are predicted to achieve our required grades at the first attempt.

Where there is strong competition for places, we are often not able to offer a place to applicants who are taking resits.

We will, however, consider resits from applicants who have experienced serious disruption to their studies. For further information please seeĀ our 'How we select' page.

We will not consider an exam taken in 2021 as a resit, if it is the first attempt at a centre assessed grade
