    Hi @Erin I need some urgent help. I am an applicant from India; how do I calculate my UCAS tariff points? The application says it needs to be > 136. If needed I can provide my grades to calculate the same.

    Morning @sthop! My best advice here would be to use the official UCAS tariff points calculator which can be found here - you can input your grades and it will calculate your tariff points for you. 😊

    Hi @sthop, ah apologies here! I have looked into this for you and unfortunately the information out there seems to be pretty old. My best advice would be to contact UCAS directly to ensure you get the most up to date advice here.

    @Jessica Booker would you have any knowledge on this?
