If you’re planning to study a degree this September but have found yourself in the clearing process, we are here to help! This process is for those who are interested in applying for our BA (Hons) Music Production & Sound Engineering Degree starting in September but haven’t yet secured a place. It also covers our brand new BA (Hons) in Music Production and DJ Practice which launches next semester (also available as a fast-tracked two-year degree). There are a number of reasons why you might want to apply for clearing at Point Blank; perhaps you decided to apply after the UCAS application deadline, you didn’t get the grades you expected or you’ve changed your mind about where you want to study. Whatever the reason, our experienced and dedicated team are here to support you through the process.
