UCAS' additional services

UCAS isn’t just an application – there are additional services you can sign up for to help you secure a place, and prepare for student life.

UCAS status codes

The quick and easy way to open a student bank account! Use your UCAS status codes to apply for a student account, once you have an unconditional offer.


Opt in for student essentials

As a charity, our services are funded by application fees, and UCAS Media – working with selected third parties to provide all the info you need around open days, course options, accommodation, student tech deals, and career opportunities to help you make the right decisions. Find out more about how to opt in.


Extra

Open from February to July, if you've used all five choices on your application, and you're not holding any offers, you could still find a place using Extra


Clearing

From July, if you’re not holding an offer you can use Clearing to try to find a place – it’s free if you made multiple choices on your original application, and there’s no limit to the number of universiites you can contact.
