If you live in a neighbourhood where there is low participation in higher education, we may be able to give priority to your application.

If you receive an offer, this could be reduced by one A-level grade (or equivalent), in most cases. You don’t need to apply separately: if you are from a Low Participation Neighbourhood we will automatically give your UCAS application additional consideration.

Postcode eligibility is assessed using a combination of two datasets, [Participation of Local Areas](https://www.officeforstudents.org.uk/data-and-analysis/young-participation-by-area/) (POLAR) and [Indices of Multiple Deprivation](https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/english-indices-of-deprivation) (IMD).

Use the following postcode checker to see if you live in a neighbourhood where there is low participation in higher education.
