Cambridge rejections/acceptances

Good luck with the application, what did you apply for?
Seems like Newnham is up on its applications too.
Whoever lives closest to the Royal Mail depot will get their post first hehe. I'm banking on the fact that the closer you live to Cambridge the quicker the post but that's a load of rubbish really!

Haven't applied yet. I'm a humble sixteen year old A/S student, with much to learn about University admissions.

I expect I shall apply to Peterhouse for History.

Best of luck with your application. I'm sure I don't need to tell you that Clare is in a wonderful location and is full of lovely, charming people, and that you'll be certain to enjoy your six years there.

Best of luck with your result!

Does anyone konw when the post should be coming through? And I mean KNOW as in you have some strong evidence backing up what you've said.

well i hope the living close to cam thing is true coz im only 45 mins away yay!

ive applied to newnham......and im so impatient.....had weird dreams abt opening my letter....like the same dream 4 times!!!! its sooo annoying im trying to forget abt it all and jus enjoy the holidays, but the waiting is killing! wonder wholl b first on the forum to find out???? make sure u post as soon as u hear! good luck everyone!

Thanks Good luck with your Peterhouse app. too.

Clare is a lovely place to be. Doubt I would stay for 6 years though, might need a change of environment after 3.

Hey I've been having weird dreams too. How sad.

i think everyones knowledge is based on random info from interviewers/ admissions office or rumours!

Is there a general consensus that the post should be here by at latest the end of this week and probably 30th or 31st?

After a double starred first and a Phd at one college, become a don at another one. It's the way to go.

thats what i thought but apparently some posts indicate it might not be until the beginining of jan! aaggggghhhhhhh NO!!!!!!

its coz ur subconscious mind is thinking of it constantly.......well thats my theory anyway!

I know I am *hoping* it is true too, because I live...under 2 miles from Cam. city. heh.

Good theory. In my dreams I get an offer. Do you get one in yours?

I guess this means that my sub conscious thinks im in? But my conscious doesn't agree.

Cambridge is only a University (although a very good one). No-one will think any less of you if you go to, say, the LSE. Perhaps at such young ages we are obsessed with academia and fail to see the big picture.

Remember also that it's a bit of a lottery: there will always be better applicants than you turned away and worse applicants than you accepted.
