Well, not drama, but im hoping to do creative writing there. Still waiting for my unconditional offer. But hey, are you doing postgrad or grad?

Just grad. I'm doing creative arts, 50% creative writing and 50% drama. You?

I'm doing a post grad in creative writing. If i may ask, how did you come to choose lancaster over the other universities in uk?

[Hanzorrr]

Only because I didn't want to do 100% creative writing as an undergrad, and Lancaster was the only place I could find that did a joint honours with drama. Also, their English and Creative Writing course is 50/50 which most uni's don't do, and that was my original choice.

Probably not. Depends on the course.

Lancasters popularity has skyrocketed thanks to improved placement in league tables. Not many spaces going spare.

Do you think Chemical Engineering is a low subscribed to course and how lenient do you think Lancaster will be on a ABB offer?

Hard to say. They might allow BBB.

In my day people were getting AAB/ABB offers but people got in in ABC or BBC, but that was two years ago and in the physics department. For 2012 entry, the physics department gets about three times the number of admissions as in 2010. I don't know if this kind of pattern has happened in engineering though. Best thing you can do is see what happens on results day and call them up and plead with them if things don't go your way.

When do we send our GCSE certificates to Lancaster? Is this done when we enrol?

[TheStormEmperor]

Yer I was planning to plead for my life if it came to it lol
And about the GCSE stuff, I think your school takes care of telling them what you have and you just bring in your stuff during enrolment invade they need

I have roughly 2k left after accommodation fees are paid. That's around £50 a week. Would that be enough to live off?

It should be. I'm living on £300pcm atm, but I could quite easily live on £200.

The rooms don't HAVE aerial ports. We use Ethernet and an experimental Freeview based service called Resnet TV.

My room had an aerial port in first year...

And it was one of the newer rooms.
