Request to be released into Clearing

Please complete this form if you hold an unconditional firm place and wish to be released into Clearing. Please be aware that you will no longer be holding a place at Lancaster University, and we may not be able to reverse this if you change your mind.

If you hold an unconditional firm place, we do not have the option of releasing you to your insurance choice. We are only able to release you into Clearing. Please take advice from UCAS if you are unsure of your options.

If you are holding a conditional firm place, we do not have the option of releasing you to your insurance choice or into Clearing. You will still need to send us evidence of your qualifications, and if you do not meet the requirements, we will mark your application as unsuccessful.
