After what will have been a very long summer for students, A Level Results Day 2022 has arrived and many students across the UK will be gearing up for an unforgettable time at Newcastle University - if you're hoping to be one of them, but need to do so through clearing, here's all you need to know.

The North East is blessed by a number of fantastic universities and perhaps the most famous of all is Newcastle University.

First established in 1834, the University has a long history and is known not only for its first-rate education but also for its buzzing student city life.

There are over 20,000 Undergraduate students at Newcastle University and if you are vying to become one of them through clearing, here's how you can do so.

Who is eligible for clearing at Newcastle University?

There are a number of ways prospective students can be eligible for clearing.

For those looking to do so on A-Level Results Day, that is most likely that "you didn’t receive an offer you wanted​" or "you didn’t meet the conditions of your offers​" - both of which make you eligible.

Other ways to meet requirements for clearing are if "you’re applying after 30 June"​, "you've paid the multiple choice application fee of £26.50​" or "you’ve declined your firm place using the ‘decline my place’ button in your application".

Which courses are available for clearing at Newcastle University?

For many students preparing to go through the clearing process, this is the big question.

It'll be a changing situation on A-Level Results Day with students ringing around and getting themselves accepted at universities across the UK, including Newcastle University.

Newcastle has a handy platform where students can check which courses have clearing - you can access that here.
