After you've submitted your application online through UCAS, the University will consider the information provided and whether a place on your chosen course can be offered. There are two types of offers:

Conditional: The offer is subject to you completing and passing various exams or providing proof of your qualifications.

Unconditional: You've already achieved, and provided evidence of, the necessary qualifications to meet our entry requirements. Visit our unconditional offers page to learn more.

Following our decision, we'll notify you via email or letter and the decision will also be visible through UCAS Track. We may also invite you to attend an open day to learn more about the course you've chosen.

If you're affected by a learning difficulty, medical condition or any other disability, you should notify us. More information can be found on our disability support page. You may also be eligible for a contextual offer.

We'll also assess your fee status criteria to find out if you need to pay home or international fees. Forms and other information can be found on our fee status criteria page.

Some courses may require a DBS (formerly CRB) check. For more information, see GOV.UK.

Making your decision

Once you've received all decisions back from the institutions you have applied to, you need to choose your firm and insurance choices. UCAS provide information of your deadline date, by which you must make your choices. This should also be made clear to you on UCAS Track

Confirming your place

UCAS will send results directly to Solent University for A-levels and BTECs taken in that year only - any other results you've obtained previously need to be confirmed by sending copies of your certificates to admissions@solent.ac.uk

On results day, check your UCAS Track to see if you've been offered a place. This will depend on the results you get but if you do not meet our standard entry requirements as stated in the conditions of your offer, you may still be considered for the course you have applied for once we have received all applicant results. If you have received an offer, well done and we look forward to seeing you when you enrol at Solent. If you haven't received an offer, please see our Clearing information.

What to expect when you arrive

Starting university is exciting, but it can also be a bit overwhelming. We've put together a website specifically aimed at freshers (students starting university for the first time) called Hello Uni. Hello Uni will take you through everything you need to know for your first few weeks on campus. This includes:

  • how registration works,
  • payment of fees, and
  • accommodation.

We've also produced a guide for parents and carers about studying at Solent, from finance and accommodation, to student support and what Solent has to offer.
