PRACTICAL GUIDANCE
Use these guides alongside the official programme and funder information.
A programme shown under “meet minimum” means the school marks you confirmed meet the published academic threshold represented in our data. Admission can still depend on available places and further selection. A near match highlights a smaller gap; it is not an offer.
If your school report is read incorrectly, correct the detected subject or mark before running the comparison. Do not rely on an OCR result without checking it.
Read the official course page for the intake year, subject minimums, campus, language rules and application route. If a date or rule is missing, contact the institution rather than guessing. Our official-source links sit beside the matching records.
Keep clear copies of your results and required identity documents. Some courses request extra material such as portfolios, interviews or tests. Make time for those steps before the deadline.
Read the funder’s eligibility rules and what costs it covers. Many bursaries ask for personal or financial information that school results alone cannot determine. Use our bursary listings to find official application pages, not as a qualification guarantee.
