Reminder: Online self-release into Clearing – best practice

We wanted to remind you of best practice guidelines around online self-release into Clearing:

Posted Tue 20 August 2019
  • We've had feedback that some providers are asking applicants to use self-release instead of changing a course in Clearing. Allowing an applicant to self-release and then add a new course before the release has been imported into your student record system may cause duplicate records. To avoid this, you should process a Confirmation amendment and change the course.
  • If an applicant has released in error and you need to rectify it, please contact our HEP Team, or wait until after the next import before allowing them to add a Clearing choice. This will avoid duplicates in your student record system.

Self-release will end at 18:00 on Saturday 31 August.
