How would you go about securing a place at a clearing uni without declining your insurance ? E.g I wouldn’t want to decline my insurance offer in case the clearing uni (if it exists) turns me down and then I would have lost the insurance too !! Would they give me assurances without a clearing reference number ?

Clearing is designed to match unplaced applicants with courses with vacancies.

If you’re placed with your insurance then you’re trying to use clearing for something it isn’t designed for. That means it’s not going to work perfectly for you.

it’s at the discretion of the universities you contact whether they’ll consider you for clearing while you hold a place elsewhere. They won’t be able to see your application so it’s very important that you give them clear and complete information and check they’ve recorded it correctly.
