Qualifications If possible, practise first on a photocopy of the application form. Use two lines or more for one qualification if the title will not fit in the space provided. You can use this space flexibly - don't try to squeeze too much onto one line. Don't send UCAS exam certificates or other papers. If you have extra information about your qualifications that will not fit in here, please send it to your chosen universities or colleges after UCAS have sent you your acknowledgement letter and application number. 7A Qualifications completed Here, you should list all the qualifications you have completed, whether you have passed or failed them.
Examination and assessment centre numbers, names and addresses You can get this from your school, college or exam centre. If your exams are at more than one centre, put each centre on a separate line and use asterisks (*) to show which exams are at which centre. List all the subjects, units or modules in the order you studied them. Group together the exams you took at the same time. If you have more than one type of qualification (for example, GCSE and GNVQ), leave a blank line between the different groups. Give the date of the exam in numbers (for example, 06 98, not June 1998), followed by the abbreviation for the awarding body (for example, OCR or AQA). Give the exact title of the exam under subject/unit/module/component, then the level (and value, if appropriate) using the abbreviations. Finally, give the result (or the grade, band or marks you achieved), including any subjects you failed. (Note this section must be completed in BLOCK CAPITALS)
