    Worcester Uni Applicants 2012
    Hello everyone, just thought that I would start up a new thread where people could post what courses they've applied for/got offers for & also state what campus they would be at & what accomodation they would stop in. To start things off ive got an unconditional offer for sports coaching science at the St Johns Campus & I think i'll be applying for silver accommodation as I know a couple of people that live in silver & it seems to be the most lively & friendliest of the different types of accommodation

    Fair enough do either of you know anyone else going to worcester or will you be starting out on your own? & where abouts are you from do you live in the midlands or further?

    I've got an unconditional offer for History and Sports Studies 99% sure it'll be my firm
    Probably gonna apply for Platinum St Johns, Platinum City Centre, and Gold St Johns (really want en-suit, but can't justify paying for Platinum Plus!). As for the questions on here, I've got two mates already there, and only live like hour and half away

    Worcester's my firm for primary teaching (5-11) so I'm up on the St Johns campus and I'd like platinum or gold ideally (although I'd really like my own bathroom if I'm honest).

    I'm not too far from worcester, like 40-45 minutes away, but I don't know that many people going. I know one other person applying for my course and two people applying for biology and midifery (different campus I think) but other than that I'm on my own.

    i confirmed Worcester as my firm in mid February and haven't heard anything back either. The accommodation applications haven't started yet i dont think, hopefully they'll open up the process soon the website still has the information for the current academic year so they'll probably update that sometime and then send out all the paperwork to people

    The website is still saying that if you've confirmed by the end of april you'll hear around the second week of may but worcester have said it'll probably open a bit earlier.

    I did email accommodation asking and got a reply saying they were expecting to open around the start of march due to the increased demand in places, but seeing as that's gone I'm guessing they changed their mind ... or they're still sorting stuff out as there's still interviews going on.

    As far as I can tell they'll send you all the information you need so its just a case of waiting on them for it all to get sent through
