Adding unit fees
Any subject or unit fee will be charged automatically depending on the current deadline.
You may be invoiced separately for late fees.
Amendment files (EDI)
If you wish to make these changes via an EDI amendment file, then please note that you need to do so at least two weeks before the session closes on the appropriate results day, e.g. for Summer GCSE entries you should ensure that any amendment files are sent before 7th August. If you send us a file after the deadline, we will always send you an email telling you it has not been processed. Depending on the nature of the amendment, you may need to manually update your MIS when we send you a file.
