Well, yeah, but by that token, if you're that passionate about it then surely you'd have taken the basic step of researching the course first? Even I know that language degrees at York involve loads of linguistics, and I don't even study one. Each to their own though :dontknow:

edit: sorry if I'm sounding harsh... your 'the course totally isn't for me but I really want an offer' thing baffled me a bit!


I didn't say I was passionate about anything though :smile:
I guess so. I just went with the idea that I should pick unis I liked the look of and work hard when I'm there whatever happens. It's more than I prefer learning through lit rather than that I hate linguistics or anything like that.
Ah, don't worry, now you've brought my attention to it, it doesn't sound great! But I still really want an offer :biggrin:

Sorry, misread your other post.

You should be okay anyway, if you've got good grades. I don't think language courses here are all that competitive, are they? University applications have dropped 10% as well, so they'll want people!

Re. this thread: I didn't get my offer (for English) til, like, late February.

Offer for CS :smile:
Got a letter today for an interview for Maths with Computer Science but had to ask them to arrange something else as I cannot afford to travel up to York and I can't get the time off work, so they are going do a telephone interview instead.

How did you arrange that? Just by phone?

I've got the same problem, it's £93 for me to go to Leeds on the train and it's really short notice :l

I know a couple of people have got offers for English - getting a bit worried because I'd love an offer from York and haven't heard anything other than an acknowledgement yet! :frown:

Does anyone know if you have to interview for English?

Congratulations! :biggrin: Ugh do they interview everyone? My Oxford interview stressed me out enough as it was, can't be dealing with another! :frown: Hopefully this means I'll find out soon though!

Don't think so I think I'm being interviewed because I'm doing joint honours English and history. I know someone on my course got an offer for another course without interview :tongue:
