if im applying from a university to another university, do I ask my university for their buzzword? or put my tutors information in separately?

[@kamikoto1558]

I left college a year and a half ago and have been unemployed since august 2022. This means I don't have a reference to put on UCAS. What do I do? I need to get into Uni.

[@noahx3569]

email one of your old teachers and ask if they can provide you with one or email your uni's and ask if they can consider you without one. x

Hello Kamikoto, the references could be done by a previous teacher, lecturer, employer or other person who represents an organization where you collaborated or studied . As long as they reply to UCAS that will be taken into account :)

But what if you do email one of ur old teachers but there on their holiday should I still do it but i feel as though they may not respond

@@thebarkaysfan1100 my college ened up finally responding and telling me they would try to get a reference but never got back to me. Luckily, I have got in without one as I emailed all Unis before to tell them my situation.

I'm an independent student who is applying for a music course, would it be okay to ask my private tutor? Also what would I put in the "organisation" section when sharing my referee details because my tutor isn't under a company or school?

Hello I am afraid you need a tutor who belongs to an educational institution.

Do I have to complete the full of application and apply to unis so my previous teachers sees my application, because she is not able to, but i have not finished my full application??
