3. Hear from previous Clearing students

The best way to prepare for Clearing is to hear from other students who have already been through the process. They can give you valuable insights and tips to help you navigate the whole thing like a pro. 

That’s why we’ve put together a must-see video featuring some of our very own students who have been through Clearing at Surrey. They’ll share their personal stories, what to expect and how they found the whole experience.
