ALL DAY CAMPUS VISIT - GLASGOW UNIVERSITYFRIDAY 6TH MARCH

 A reminder to all staff and UCAS candidates that this Friday is the Campus

visit to Glasgow University.

UCAS candidates should register first in their tutor groups and then report to Miss Logan outside the Assembly Hall.

Allander Coaches will take those participating in the visit from school at 9.00am prompt and, after the visit, depart from the University Campus at

UCAS candidates who do not attend, without a valid reason, cannot receive a full Top-Up Student Profile and cannot, therefore, have their performance on Top-Up taken into account when applying to Higher

Education institutions.
