UCAS Reviews 31

The UCAS website is a horrendous piece of over blown garbage which takes far too much time to actually find my application in amongst a well meaning jungle of advice. I started an application , then when i returned to the site , there seems to be no heading into which i can re-enter ... i did find it inadvertantly via the uni webiste but can't remember how . The UCAS website is the single biggest barrier to my university aplication

1 not enough application slots
2 universities are not held accountable to those who's education was effected by covid
3 poor value for money as americans can apply for as many universities as they want
4 implement a £5 application fee with £4 for additional application slots
5 if you do not want to add additional slots guarantee 5 accepted slots.

while it was a easy to use, the service is not made for anyone looking to improve their lives who are indecisive or have a mental issue and like to research the universities properly.

Had trouble with application but was sorted swiftly. Very helpful staff.

my friend chalay is going to cardiff maaaannn so many motives and tons of gyally.

The website is useless, and needlessly complicates the university application process, when it would be far easier to apply directly to the university.

Worst user experience. Too complicated. Page loading errors. I will focus on those universities only which take the direct application.

I believe there is some kind of heavy commissions involved as all applications are directed toward UCAS (a useless company). Why not universities take direct applications and are dependent on this incompetent company which is not helpful at all. I had a very bad experience with UCAS and I will not make an application through this company ever event if my chances are reduced because of not going through this company.

I called UCAS to request access to the reference that was given by my school and they answered the phone promptly and were efficient and professional once through. Great experience!

Don't expect them to ever wipe your data. After making several requests after months of asking, they're still refusing to cooperate.

I believed I had forgotten my password. So I decided to just simply press the reset password button and rest my password, after resetting my password I then tried to login to the site, that still did not work, I tried resetting it for a second time and it still said my credentials were incorrect.
Even after using autofill from my phone it still did not work, I will now have to apply individually.

absolutely pro establishment biased and have too much say on predictions and your choices plus institutions and suspend your application and never return your money after suspending your application universities should be independent in their application process why should we abide by UCAS'S foolish politically correct and establishment supporting policies they abandon working class or low income earning students from going to university if they do they have to go to polytechnic type of institutions abandon and scrap UCAS they make tons of money and have far too much power they need to be scrapped asap
