🎨✨ Waiting for your results? Your creative future is still full of possibilities.
With Results Day just around the corner, we know there may be a few nerves alongside the excitement.
Whether you're hoping to study Art, Design, Animation, Games, Film, Photography, Performance, Music, Media or another creative subject, it's worth remembering that Clearing isn't a last-minute fallback. For many students, it's the route that helps them find the right course, the right university and the right creative community.
At the School of Arts & Creative Industries at Teesside University, we're here to help you explore your options and make confident choices about your future.
You might be:
🎉 Celebrating results that open up new opportunities
🎨 Thinking about a different creative course than you originally applied for
💭 Reconsidering your university choice
📚 Looking for advice about portfolios, projects or course content
👨🎓 Wanting to chat with academics, technicians or current students about life at Teesside
Our academics and support teams are on hand to answer your questions, talk through courses and help you understand what studying in our creative community is really like.
No pressure. No silly questions. Just friendly advice.

🏛️ Visit campus at our Clearing Fair on Saturday 15 August (10am-2pm)
Many of our students didn't follow the path they originally planned. Some changed course, some changed university, and some discovered a creative discipline they hadn't previously considered. What matters is finding the place where your talent, ambition and creativity can thrive.
If you're waiting for results this week, take a breath. Whatever happens, there are options available and a team of people ready to help you explore them.
