A-level results day started badly for Rachel.
“I didn’t do as well as I’d hoped,” she said. “I got nervous and flunked them a bit.”
However, Rachel’s day was about to get better, she got on the phone very quickly.
She added: “It had been a stressful day and the University of Lincoln were so lovely. They had been dealing with a lot of people like me, they understood and helped with everything.”
Lincoln offered Rachel a place to study fine art.
