How do I make a Clearing application?
You can make a Clearing application to us once you have received all of your qualifications. We have two options to make an Clearing application with us, online via our webform or calling us on our telephone hotline.

Either way, you'll submit personal information, such as contact details, alongside qualification details. You'll also get the chance to tell us about any extracurricular activities or work experience you think we might want to know about. If you have any certificates or transcripts of your qualifications, please make use of the document uploader on the online Clearing webform to send these to us with your Clearing application, especially if these are not standard UK qualifications. Your application then gets sent to our Admissions team and you'll receive further information via email.
If you are applying to East 15 Acting School, once we’ve processed your application, we’ll invite you to attend an online audition (for acting and performance courses) or an online interview (for technical and production courses) – usually within two days. If you have any questions you can reach out to us at e15adms@essex.ac.uk
How will I find out if I've been offered a place?
We aim to give you a decision on your Clearing application as soon as possible. At the moment, you can expect a decision within 3 working days. From Results Day (14 August), this process will be quicker.
Sometimes we may need additional information to determine whether we can offer you a place on your original course choice or an alternative. If that’s the case, we’ll take your details and get back to you as quickly as possible.
