Copy of UCAS application

[Gnocchi26]

Is it a good idea to request this from UCAS? Application just gone in and DC saw their reference briefly but I am paranoid about incorrect grades or anything like that! If there was a problem can it even be updated anyway? Do many of you bother to get a copy?

I would get a copy if possible. I wouldn't trust the school blindly 😬

Although when I did mine many years ago, the school did it all correctly, even though I was applying from abroad and my school had never seen UCAS applications before. I don't know if errors are common.

Definitely. I've seen truly horrendous errors by schools.

Thanks - sounds like not a bad idea to request it then😬

My son’s school posted his reference in his record in the parents portal so I could see it. Does yours do anything similar ?

No, and from what I've heard that is quite unusual? DC did see it but I don't think had time to digest it properly.

Thank you for this, I had no idea that UCAS would provide a copy. Do you have a link to a request form?

Your DC needs to call customer services (or you can do it if you are named as a proxy on the form). Can’t be done online.

Thank you! Will do that
