Complete the enquiry below so we can review your subjects, existing academic evidence, intended application route and deadline before confirming what support is appropriate.
Availability and deadlines
Assessment, reference and application-support capacity is limited, particularly close to UCAS deadlines. Please enquire as early as possible. Submitting this form does not confirm acceptance or availability.
What WINA can support
01
Mock examinations and predicted-grade assessment
Two supervised, marked mock assessments may form part of the standard assessment route.
Predicted grades are provided only where academic evidence supports them.
02
Academic references
A suitable WINA tutor or academic staff member may prepare a factual UCAS reference where sufficient genuine academic knowledge exists.
If more evidence is needed, an individual assessment or academic-engagement plan may be agreed first.
03
Application guidance and linking
Support may include understanding the application route, qualifications, deadlines and either reference-only or full centre-linked support depending on need and WINA availability.

ACADEMIC STANDARDS
Academic evidence comes first
Predicted grades must be supported by reliable academic evidence.
A particular grade or university offer cannot be guaranteed.
Further assessment or academic engagement may be needed where evidence is insufficient.
Formal examination registration and awarding-body fees are separate services.

Practical preparation
We can help applicants understand their route, organise supporting evidence, prepare for agreed assessments and work through the application process with clear next steps.
