They offer students access to cutting-edge facilities, a diverse range of academic programmes, and opportunities to engage with world-leading experts in their fields. The prestigious reputation of Russell Group universities like The University of Manchester can significantly enhance a graduate&#8217;s employability, opening doors to competitive job markets and providing a strong network of alumni connections &#8211; we\u2019re one of the most targeted universities by leading graduate employers (The Graduate Market in 2024, High Fliers Research).\u00a0<br>\u00a0<br>Furthermore, the emphasis on research and innovation fosters critical thinking and problem-solving skills, equipping students with the tools needed to excel in their careers and make meaningful contributions to society.\u00a0<br>\u00a0<br>So, here\u2019s how you can support your student through this process and help ease those worries.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1008\" height=\"673\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/05\/Accomodation-1.png\" alt=\"Two students chatting over bowls of cereal. \" class=\"wp-image-5742\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/05\/Accomodation-1.png 1008w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/05\/Accomodation-1-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/05\/Accomodation-1-768x513.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1008px) 100vw, 1008px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Understanding Clearing<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Clearing is a system that matches students to available university places. It&#8217;s not uncommon for students to find themselves in Clearing, whether they&#8217;ve not been accepted at their firm choice institution, missed their expected grades, changed their mind about their chosen course, performed better than expected in exams, or decided to apply after the main UCAS deadline. Many Russell Group universities offer places through Clearing, and your student can still secure a spot at a top-tier institution.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Support the application process<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Results day can get a little hectic, which is why it\u2019s important to act quickly. Encourage your student to contact universities directly, armed with their UCAS ID and results. Be there to support them emotionally and help with logistics, such as finding a quiet place to make calls and noting down important information from conversations.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1008\" height=\"672\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/05\/Friends3-1.png\" alt=\"Three students sat at a table chatting. \" class=\"wp-image-5740\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/05\/Friends3-1.png 1008w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/05\/Friends3-1-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2024\/05\/Friends3-1-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1008px) 100vw, 1008px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Consider the Bigger Picture<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Reassure your student that university is just one step in their educational journey.
