It was actually written on the website that when they are going to give out offers.

http://www.cardiff.ac.uk/archi/admissionsbsc-faq.php

When will I hear if I have been offered a place on the course?
Decisions will be processed throughout the application cycle, for main cycle applicants the first batch of decisions are likely to be made mid-December, then late February or late March. Once the school has made a decision on your application you will be informed via UCAS Track of any outcome.

I keep checking my email everyday even if I know that :s-smilie: Waiting is such a pain!
