Default Question about Permanent Private Halls
 
Hello
If you had to choose between option 1, 2 or 3, which one would you pick and why?

Option 1
The default position. Your application will only be considered by a PPH if you have first been interviewed by a college.

Option 2
Opting in to a PPH. Your application may be considered by a PPH either before or after you have been interviewed by a college.

Option 3
Opting out of a PPH. Your application will not be considered by a PPH at any stage.

Cheers,

It would depend on whether you'd actually like to end up at a PPH, no?

Option 1: if you'd be happy at a PPH but would prefer a normal college.
Option 2: if you'd be just as happy, or happier, at a PPH.
Option 3: if you don't want to end up at a PPH.

Thought so; is it possible to re-fill the form if I change my mind?
EDIT: Well I just did, worked fine I guess.

It would be better to email the UG admissions office to get a definite answer.

I picked 1, it seemed to be the best of both worlds, but I'd want to be at a normal college.

Option 1

My friend applying for the same college at Oxford chose option 2 though... (not the male only one though).
