    Hello there, I've never been to Cambridge so I'm not speaking from personal knowledge but after google mapping it I found that it's about a 25-30 minute walk to city center so that's not too bad. I imagine by bike/skateboard that could easily be 15-20 minutes.

    Hullo!

    I was extended an offer by Wolfson back in April as I was accepted to read for my MPhil in Anglo-Saxon, Norse, and Celtic. I've corresponded with a few of the administrators and I must say that they've all been quite helpful. Now I'm just waiting for the BoGS to hurry up and acknowledge the receipt of the paperwork to fulfill the final condition related to my offer. :rolleyes:

    Yes, insofar as my department - Anglo-Saxon, Norse, and Celtic - is part of the Faculty of English. I consider myself an English scholar, though, because my undergraduate degree is in English and my PhD will be, too.
