Set in one of the UK's most beautiful and historic cities, the University of Lincoln is a place where past and future meet. Our vibrant Brayford Pool Campus sits at the heart of it all — right on the waterfront and just minutes from the high street, restaurants, and student life.

Here at Lincoln, we're proud to be known as the University of No Regrets. That means putting students first in everything we do — from award-winning accommodation (5th in the Whatuni Student Choice Awards 2025) to outstanding teaching and career-building opportunities. We've also been ranked among the top 20 universities in the University of the Year category, showing just how far our commitment goes.

With more than 100 clubs and societies to choose from, a supportive campus community, and real-world connections through regional and global employers, Lincoln is more than a university — it's your next adventure. And if you're joining us through Clearing, we'll make sure the experience is smooth, personal, and stress-free.

Applying to Lincoln through Clearing couldn't be easier. Our friendly team will be ready to chat — both before and on results day — to help you make your next move with confidence.

From 5 July:

• Find available courses on UCAS or our website.
• Check entry requirements and course info (psst… we can often make offers even if you don't meet all the published criteria).
• Feel prepared by noting down what you need before calling.

On results day (or before if you already have your grades):

• Call our Clearing hotline.
• Have your UCAS number, course name, grades, and Personal ID ready.
• Get a decision – often on the spot!

Once you receive an offer, add us on UCAS and we'll guide you through the next steps. But remember: Clearing spaces are first-come, first-served, so don't wait!

Once you've secured your place:

• Sort Student Finance as soon as possible (you don't need a confirmed place to start).
• Apply for accommodation — we guarantee a room in University-managed residences if you apply by 31 August 2025.
• Join our Unibuddy Community to start making friends and connections before term begins.

From the moment you say yes to Lincoln, we'll be right there with you to make sure everything's in place for a no-regret start to uni life.
