My application has been unsuccessful. Can you tell me why?
The university or college may provide a reason for their decision in Track at the time of their initial decision, or at a later date. However, if you have already replied to offers or no reason is shown in Track, you will have to contact the university or college to discuss the reason why you were unsuccessful.
