I'm applying this September, and I'm looking at Kent as one the uni's.
What made you want to come to Kent, were they okay with grades like what is their leniency like?

Great location, not too far and I really like the modules/structure for my course. Also seems to have a friendly community and is well ranked.

They do seem very lenient, my friend and I both missed our offers by two grades and were still accepted (needed ABB) but this may partly have been because we both firmed Kent and we still did well in the subjects we wanted to study. I have also heard similar stories from others about this so it seems to be fairly common for Kent.

Do you live in the Gravesham-Medway area by any chance or are you a Londoner?

Parkwood, Twin Ensuite. :smile: Although honestly, my first three choices are pretty much equivalent to me. You can always log into the Hospitality Portal to check your choices.
