My DS is in the same boat wondering this too....he was told by a friend who’s there now that they don’t accept you if the grades aren’t reached as there are so many that do achieve AAB there’s no need to!? However, I’ve also heard if they want you, they might?!???! So no clearer really, sorry.
My DS has his recall soon, so we will see.
The dilemma we also have is, his Trinity Laban offer is awaiting acceptance on UCAS, but if he were to be offered GSA obviously we won’t know how realistic that is before results day! So how does that work as I’m sure he needs to accept or decline Trinity before then????? In all honesty he is beginning to favour Trinity as oddly even though it’s ‘in London’ with the maint loan being higher but the accommodation being almost the same price and the fact Trinity offer a bursary (means tested), this actually works out better for him financially.
My DD hasn't applied to Trinity this year, but last year she did that via CUCAS and the others via UCAS. At the time CUCAS told us if she got a Trinity Offer she could accept that as first choice on CUCAs and the other degree on on UCAS and then make your decision on results day

Worth calling them - they were very helpful to us
Thank you, I messaged them and they confirmed that he can accept Trinity via his Conservatoire application and if lucky enough to be offered GSA can also accept that via UCAS, then decide on results day dependant on the AAB! He’s happy that he’s got Trinity ‘in the bag’ so to speak as it’s a guaranteed conditional (dependant on EE but he’s way above that currently, thank goodness!) and Trinity is a fantastic offer for him in any case.

So glad to hear this. So no matter what happens he'll be somewhere that he wants to be
