Welcome to the LEAPS student survey

You must complete all of the five parts below. It should take no more than 30 minutes to complete, if you prepare in advance. Please have details of your qualifications and possible University or College applications to hand before you start. You will also be asked about your eligibility - please view our What is LEAPS? presentation to learn more. You can find out how we use and what we do with your personal data here.

Do not close your browser whilst completing the survey. It is recommended that you complete this survey on a PC as it is easier than using an ipad or tablet.

Only the students of participating schools can complete the survey.

Some fields will offer suggestions as you type. Choose a suitable suggestion if one is presented, otherwise continue to type and your text will be accepted.

If you need to insert extra rows, press add to get another row.

Required inputs have an asterisk. Once entered they will become red if there is a problem. You should check that all required inputs are green before proceeding. Inputs that are optional remain white. You will only be able to submit the form once all required inputs have been answered.

Please input details of all qualifications you have (or are studying in the current year) for each year of school. Input any qualifications you sat but did not pass. The system will not allow you to bypass this section. If you do not know your grade yet, select "unknown" in the grade column. If you want to enter more qualifications for any year, use the "add" button to add extra rows. If you have any qualifications that do not meet the criteria below, you will have the option to add them later.

If you have no qualifications to enter, check this checkbox to confirm you are not providing any qualifications:

3. Potential Applications

Please list any applications for further or higher education that you are thinking of making. Use one row per application, up to the maximum of 6. If you have not made any decisions yet, please feel free to leave this section blank. The more information you add to this section, the more detailed your interview will be. Even if you have lots of different ideas, putting examples of some of them in this section will help us to advise you better.
