Talk it through with your teachers, your family and your friends before
you make a decision.
If you've got doubts about the course you've applied for, it could
be worth contacting the admissions tutor and discussing your worries
with them before making your mind up.
If you've chosen a first choice and insurance offer, then you've made
a serious commitment to do that course, so think carefully about your
reasons for withdrawing.
If you've really thought it through and you're still sure you want
to withdraw, then it's probably for the best. After all, to do well
in higher education, you'll have to put the work in and it won't be
easy if your heart's not in it.
How Do
I Withdraw?
When you applied to UCAS you should have received a booklet called
'Advice For Applicants'. At the back of the booklet is a withdrawal
slip - fill this in and return it to UCAS.
Once UCAS has received this notification, you won't be able to apply
again to somewhere else until the following year.
You can't withdraw and then go through Clearing unless your reasons
for withdrawing were really exceptional, in which case you should
contact UCAS to ask for advice.
