There is space on the UCAS form for you to specify if you have attended a Sutton Trust programme, such as Pathways. Some universities will prioritise or give reduced offers to students who have attended a Sutton Trust programme, however this is not the case for all universities. We also stress that this should not be a determining factor for you to attend a Sutton Trust programme. Your motivations for taking part should be aligned with the aims and objectives of the programme.
Students who successfully complete their Pathways programme may be eligible for a contextual offer (e.g. a grade reduction) from some of our partner universities. You can find out more on our website. Please note that the offerings available may differ year on year.
If you'd like to find out more about the contextual offers available at UK Universities, you can use our contextual offers tool to check which criteria each university will take into consideration and the alternative offers they provide.
