Stating the obvious there then! I'll try not to be too optimistic and get my hopes up! Is anyone else waiting on LJMU as a first choice?


Know of one person that got a conditional offer off LJM last week. Hopefully this week then as they will have had a few days off for the bank holiday

I would have loved to get into uwe, it's just down the road from me! Although I am excited I now have to drive to Bournemouth every week, but I'm sure it will be worth it.


Getting into Bournemouth is equally as good :biggrin:
Are you not able to live in Bournemouth permanently?

Oh I know, I'm chuffed to nuts to get a place in Bournemouth! And yes we are going to look into moving, but with two kids, two dogs & a mortgage it's not as easy as a quick move into student accommodation. Still it's something I've been planning for years so I am uber excited :smile:

Waw that's even more exciting for you! :-)

And I thought my move into student accommodation was enough! :P
Just looked at this haven't checked for ages! Everyone seems to be doing great! Fingers crossed still!

Thats strange! I phoned them this morning and they said they hadn't sent any offers out as yet because their short staffed and they hope that all decisions will be sent out in the next week! Fingers crossed!

OH that's strange then. I read it on the Facebook page so you want to be a paramedic. The person I also spoke to last week said it would be this week and he didn't mention they'd started giving offers- so it's a bit weird.

No news is good news... No point flapping. I did, got myself worked up and sleepless nights, for nothing.

LJMU said on the phone they had some interviews this week then would start sending out offers. Swansea are hoping to send letters next week.

Same. Looking forward to seeing the ranking and then deciding how likely it actually is I'll get a place.
The thing is, if you're offered a place in August how're you supposed to apply for student finance etc as deadlines will have been and gone?

I guess we need to apply for finance now, then if we get a place we have the finance. If we don't get a place then we just don't take the finance??

I guess!

Have you had any offers for anywhere else? I am now on two waiting lists.....and thinking about completing my UCAS form next year!!

You can apply for student finance even if you have not got an offer, the was the finance is activated is through the university itself so no money will be exchanging hands until you actually attended university! If you don't get an offer just cancel your application for finance! Its best to apply now as they always take months for applications to go through!
