Clearing 2026 will open on Thursday 2 July. If you’re from the UK, Clearing is a service, open every year between July and September, that can help you find a place on one of our full-time undergraduate courses starting in the autumn. Clearing is ideal if you decide you want to go to university a little later than usual, you don't get the grades you were hoping for or you've changed your mind about your the course or university you originally chose. We've helped thousands of people just like you find a place on a full-time undergraduate degree through Clearing and we look forward to welcoming many more students through Clearing this year.

Meet our real London community
Like the wider London community, our students, staff and graduates come from all kinds of backgrounds – some from around the corner, others from around the globe. Each and every one of them belongs here and uniquely contributes to our community and the city around them. They are The Real London. This is The Real London. Our Real London stories are brought to life by a London Met graduate who was inspired by the extraordinary people who make up the University community here. We hope you enjoy getting to know them as much as we did!
