Preparing for Higher Education during the COVID-19 pandemic
At FOCUS West we are working with our partner institutions to create guidance for you during this time. We appreciate that the uncertainty will be unsettling, and want to help as much as possible.
As we understand it, institutions will be accepting results confirmed by SQA, however may have their own approach when giving offers. We would therefore advise referring to the Admissions department of your chosen institution for information and follow any guidance provided by them.
We hope that this goes some way to alleviate your anxiety and reduce the stress caused during the COVID-19 pandemic.
