QUB Releases A Level Results Advice
Secondary school students across Northern Ireland will be receiving their A-level results on Thursday 14 August, and Queen's University Belfast has issued advice to those awaiting grades.
Jennifer Dwyer, Head of Queen’s Admissions and Access Service, said: "The University receives A-level and AS-level results directly from UCAS and candidates do not need to communicate their results to the University. Students will be contacted if any results appear to be missing. Those who did not take an examination listed on their application should let the University know without delay."
Decisions made by Queen's, the University of Ulster, and Stranmillis University College are posted on a website hosted by Queen's on the morning of Thursday 14 August and updated twice each day.
The address is www.qub.ac.uk/ucas.
Queen's said applicants who achieve the grades or points specified in their conditional offer will have their place confirmed through UCAS following the results.
Successful applicants will be required to log into Track to read their AS12 letter to find out what action they need to take.
Students who average out or narrowly miss the grades required could still be accepted for their original choice, but it may be a few days before this can be confirmed.
Jennifer Dwyer added: "It is crucial to make decisions sensibly at this time of year and not to accept alternative courses, or Adjustment or Clearing places without careful consideration. There are many people who can help. Students unsure about which option to pursue should discuss their situation carefully with their parents, their school or college or the Careers Service of the Department for Employment and Learning."
Queen’s will operate advice lines following publication of results.
The telephone number to use is 028 9097 3838. On Thursday, lines will open from 09:30 to 18:00.
Further information on opening times for subsequent days can be found online at www.qub.ac.uk/sites/NewStudents.
