If you make an application through more than one of our application systems (CUKAS, UCAS or GTTR) you cannot hold more than one confirmed place. A confirmed place in CUKAS is a guaranteed unconditional offer as your first choice (GU1) and in UCAS and GTTR it is an unconditional firm (UF) place. If you do receive more than one confirmed place, we will ask you to accept one and withdraw from any others.
