Hey, I was wondering if there is a wonderful person out there who can help me?!!

Im applyin for 5 unis on the UCAS site, Falmouth is one of them, and they say that they have to be your first choice otherwise you wont be accepted....but when you put your choices in, it puts them in aphabetical order, so Falmouth is second. Then when I go to pay, it has the list of choices, and it says Choice 2: Falmouth, so its saying its my second choice on there too. Was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem?? I dunno what to do!!

Don't quote me on this...

but I think they changed it this year so that the Uni's don't know who you put as first/second/third choice. So I think it lists is alphabetically, so that you can apply to each one without them knowing where they were in the list....


i think :crazy:

I was wondering if this is what they had done, because its stupid that you have to put some as your first choice....

i sent off my application a couple of months back and it doesnt matter what order you put your five chosen in because its just makes them alphabetically. when uve heard back from all 5, whether its an offer or decline you go on to chose your 1st and 2nd choice out of them and send it back. hope that helps a little.

no not at all, only when you get your offers you pick 2 out of the 5, the first being ure main choice and the second as back up if you dont get the grades for your first choice.
