University of Edinburgh Applicants 2015 entry

Original post by laratomkins12345

i ma the exact same boat. applied for sociology and social anthropology and not heard since november when i applied! what did you get in your highers? i really want to go!

Hopefully the late reply has something to do with the department then! I'm actually not from the UK, but the standard offer from Edinburgh asks for high grades (in my system), no doubt!

Is there an email that you can ask for feedback on the reason your application was unsuccessful for Edinburgh. I was rejected today but I dont know how to get feedback.

That sucks I'm sorry! Was it your first choice? I'm not sure exactly which email but I'd say its on UCAS or the admissions section of the website? Maybe the contact section I'm not sure :s

Very sorry to hear that, hope you had other offers! Can I ask you what was your chosen course? However I cannot help you, because I have usually called them

International Business with Spanish.Oh sorry I didnt see the post above, no it wasnt my first choice. I do feel now a bit gutted but like its happened now so yeah. I just got an email from them about their online portal so I think I will find a link to ask about feedback there.

[email protected] is the mentioned mail

I just wrote them a mail.
They sent my a message today that both of my applications couldn't be considered since I applied after the deadline.
But I handed in everything on time via UCAS.

Any tips how to proceed?

Hmm I am not sure I just emailed them now too. But then was emailed back that they had received a high volume of emails and that I need to wait I think. It seems strange if you handed your stuff in on time before the deadline that their reason is because you didnt meet the deadline :/

UCAS should have sent you an acknowledgement when you originally sent in your application. Did you get one? If so, forward it onto them.
Also, UCAS would have sent you username and password details. Log into UCAS and see what it says there.

12:46 - email prompt to check UCAS.
Received laughably low conditional offer to study law at Edinburgh. Almost offensively low? Don't they think I can do better?

Don't firm them then :-)

Good luck. Hold tight. It's so close to the deadline now that you can be certain that you're in the mix! I hope you get a good result.

All you have done on this tread is complain.

You should be happy they have made you an offer and a low conditional at that but are you ? no. If it is so offensive to you then don't accept it

How is it offensive anyway ? They want you and have given you a low off to show that. If that offends you then maybe you need to toughen up a bit :wink:
