The lead-up to the announcement of A-levels, or other exam results, is often an anxious time. If you're worried about your grades, Clearing can give you opportunities you may not have considered before.
To anybody worried about exam results, I'd say try your best but also give yourself a break. You still have plenty of opportunities and possibilities available to you.

How it works
Explore the courses we have on offer. Please get in touch with us if you know you want to change your plans and come to Goldsmiths.
We would also advise you to look at the Life on Campus section of our website and watch some of our videos about what makes Goldsmiths special on YouTube to see if it is the right choice of university for you.
Consider a foundation year
Goldsmiths offers degrees with an additional foundational year. These four-year degrees can be an ideal choice for students who don’t feel quite ready to begin an undergraduate programme yet and want to consolidate their knowledge for an academic year. They are also suited to mature students looking to return to education. Take a look at our four-year degrees in Media & Communications, Computing, Psychology, Music, Anthropology, English, History, Sociology and Politics with Interational Relations.
If you're worried about applying through Clearing, we have some handy advice on the process.
