    Aww that's terrible news I hope you enjoy Nottingham Trent as it looked amazing. I still might choose Trent over Leeds depending on how my visit goes in a couple of weeks at Leeds.

    I have a Westminster interview today, hope that goes well.
    Are you going to the open day in Feb, or the one on 2nd March or 9th March? Really looking forward to Leeds. Reading this feed has made me realise how fortunate I am to have got an offer from them so quickly Just want to hear from York now so that I can put my firm and insurance!

    Just got a rejection from Leeds, absolutely gutted.
    They said that they were seriously oversubscribed but that they think I am good enough to apply for New Media or Communications which I am not going to do. Basically they need to fill up places.
    But life goes on, Nottingham Trent had better watch out!
    Looks like i'll be seeing you there!! ha! i havent heard from leeds but i can't see it being good news! hello notts!...

    I've done the interview, first you have a tour and presentation then you have to write a short sort of essay on why you want to be a journalist and then you have to read some news bulletins as if it's for the radio . I thought it was really fun

    I think 26-Sept if I remember correctly? When did you apply? Might want to give them a call to make sure they received your application to be sure because interviews are being hold around this time.

    Thanks and good luck.

    Oh right that'll probably explain it, I applied 25th of November. I have emailed them updating my application since though so they should have it. My friend applied for Film and Television Production around the same time as me and she hasn't had a reply yet but others have had interviews so it should be okay.

    Thanks!

    yeah i got an expected rejection, I knew it would be since my personal statement was all about Broadcast and the course is journalism.
    I didnt get an email about it though just went on my track today and it was there lol
    Im not upset though, I only applied there to get 5 choices down haha
