What happens after getting a place?
Congratulations! You've taken the first steps of your adventure with us – we can't wait to meet you.
Check your inbox
Keep an eye out for our 'Joining instructions' email, which will walk you through enrolling. After applying for accommodation, we’ll also send you welcome information about your college.
Accept your offer
Once we’ve made you an offer, you’ll need to accept it on your UCAS Hub by the deadline we provide. You can usually add your Clearing choice on UCAS Hub from the afternoon of A level results day.

Learn about accommodation
We have living options across campus and the city, each supported by our college communities, to make York feel like home.
Update finance details
If you're a new UK (Home) student, you'll need to apply for student finance. If you've applied already, you'll need to log in to your student finance provider to update your course details.
