    Derby taking a long time to reply?
    not sure if this is in the wrong place or not so sorry if it is!

    I applied to do occupational therapy at 5 unis (deferred) and Derby seems to be taking forever to reply! In the mean time Plymouth have offered me a conditional place straight out, I have had interviews at Oxford brookes (who gave me a conditional), Northampton (who also gave me an offer) and at York st john (who have also taken a long time to reply form an interview when i think about it). Derby havent even emailed an acknowledgment? and as my course mostly requires interviews surely its too late to arrange one now?

    is any one else having this problem with Derby? (at the moment im going to wait to hear back from York st john then just with draw my application from Derby as surely leaving it this long only leaves time for a rejection? )
