    Sports-Related University Applicants
    I just wanted to know if anyone has received any offers for any sports-related course at their university choice(s).

    I'm applying for a Sports Science/Exercise Science, but my UCAS still hasn't been sent off and I've chosen a range of universities...

    Aberystwyth University
    Brunel University
    University of Derby
    University of Northampton
    St Mary's University College, Twickenham

    Oh, that's pretty good to hear! How come you were rejected by Brunel? Did you ask them why?

    Thank you

    I don't know why, they didn't give a reason. Apparently it's quite hard to get in there. I'm not too bothered though, as I don't really want to live in London.

    It's not difficult to get into Brunel, it's probably because there are a higher number of applicants for the course? I'm a bit worried now, I want Brunel to be my firm, but now I don't think I'll get an offer. Good luck with the rest though!

    Ooooooh, nice, nice!

    I finally got an offer, after 2 days within my application being sent off from Derby. Pleased with it, as I thought I might get 5 straight rejections.

    And, accommodation choices? When does that commence and how do you apply? I hadn't even thought about that. :/
