UCAS Referee

[lindaandrews]

I’m applying independently to UCAS with a former teacher giving me my reference. UCAS is asking me to give the phone number of my referee i.e. my former teacher.

I don’t know it so what should I do?

Perhaps the school phone number?

You ask the referee what number she wants you to give.

Honestly are you parents not guiding you with this at all?

Have you got the extra time officially sanctioned yet? How is the actual resit work coming along?

My Dd applied to ucas a year and a half after finishing school. She used a former teacher as a referee, but had to ask him about a phone number, as he no longer worked at the school. She had no input from us and sorted it by herself.

My parents are immigrants who are totally ignorant about the whole process and which is why I have to do everything by myself.

That's a shame you don't have any parental support.
Where have you got to with the potential extra time situation?
