The Official 2017 Cambridge Applicants Thread

Different colleges have different forms but they will all be asking you to sign a data protection statement. It might be part of your Fee Status Form. Or it might be a standalone form, or it might be somewhere else.

Have you received any forms at all?

Do international applicants receive earlier notice regarding the interview (I applied to be interviewed in Cambridge)? - I'm assuming this would not be the case, however it would make a great difference booking a flight.

I'm applying to Caius as well and so far nothing from them - no confirmation, no data protection statement or fee status forms or anything..

I've received nothing. Apparently other Caius applicants are the same... does seem a bit odd though...

I would definitely contact the college as they may be able to do something about this, but they are infamously inflexible on matters such as this.

Edit: In reply to the other guy I was president last year but still haven't taken it off and I was not intending to say that you shouldn't contact them asap as a matter of urgency I was just warning you against your implied assumption that it would be okay.

Thanks. College tomorrow it is then.

Do you have any news?

Not much. I have phoned the college and was told to forward the submission acknowledgement to the SAQ admin email address, copying the college admissions email address. I have done that and am waiting for them to reply again.

I asked that to an AT I think once and they said they would send a notice as early as they can for the international applicants. However it is going to be after the AA so beginning/mid november..
From where are you coming to Cambridge?

Oh well okay, I really hope it gets sorted out

Thanks I'm applying from South Africa; What about yourself?

Btw is there a facebook group for Cambridge applicants 2017 or something?

Not odd at all. All colleges are different.

Yours will be in touch in due course.

Maybe they'll send those after the AA or something idk
But.. there's no need to worry about it tho cause every Caius applicant is in the same boat so I guess they just have a different way of sending those and a different schedule.

No it doesn't. It seems perfectly normal. Colleges operate differently.

No, and if you see any. Don't join them, they're scams to help steal your info. You'll be added to an FB group once you get an offer and/or meet it by your college JCR team.

Well, best of luck. I'm sure you'll ace STEP this time around, now you haven't got a million exams in one year.

Are you doing any extra A-levels as well?

You only count if I see you.
