Will cash deals fill courses?

Article Abstract:

More than 50 universities were contacted by two A-level students working for The Times Higher who said they were not expected to achieve their predicted A-level grades and asking whether the universities would consider last-minute financial deals in clearing. The majority of universities said no, but staff at six suggested that discounts were being considered for clearing places.
