On-time outstanding decisions list

The on-time outstanding decisions list (ODL) shows all your applicants who applied by (on or before) 15 January 2016, for which we are still awaiting your decision.

Posted Wed 30 March 2016

We tell applicants who applied by 15 January 2016 they can expect decisions from all their choices by 5 May 2016 at the latest – but please enter your outstanding decisions as soon as possible.

Eligible applicants can use Extra now if you reject them, rather than waiting for a reject by default (RBD) decision on 5 May 2016.

web-link

We recommend viewing your ODL in web-link, as this provides a 'real-time' version which automatically updates as you enter decisions.

To check your outstanding decisions for on-time applications:

  • sign in to ‘Applicant data’
  • click ‘UCAS’
  • click ‘Outstanding decisions list’
  • select ‘On time – applicants who applied by (i.e. on or before) 15 January’

FTP server

Alternatively, you can download your list from the UCAS FTP server.

The file prefix on the firewall will be X99(your institution code)_ucas_odllist. followed by your security key. For example, X99_ucas_odllist.a1b2c3.
