    Anyone applying to Lampeter this time?

    And does anyone have any idea how quickly they get back to you?

    I'm applying for Lampeter (for History) but I don't know how quickly they get back to you. I've looked on their website and as far as I could see I doesn't say.

    I'm in my third year doing Media Production at Lampeter. Lampeter was the only one of my 5 choices who actually called me up personally, but they are going through changes at the moment having merged with Trinity College Carmarthen. The new institution will be called Trinity Saint David, which is dangerously close to STD, but each campus will hopefully retain their identity. Admissions can be contacted at admissions@lamp.ac.uk if you want more information, or you could find your department at lamp.ac.uk and give them a call.

    Also, if you're interested, this year I started The Lampeter Podcast, if you want a feel of what Lampeter is like week in week out it might be worth listening. The raw itunes feed is available by clicking here or you can find us on Facebook by searching for Lampeter Podcast.
