    Has anyone actually got a confirmation email after firming Warwick?
    I got a letter from UCAS and an email from my insurance to let me know they knew. All I've had from Warwick since firming them is an email asking me to come to a potential applicant open day. Can't tell if they don't know or what. Help?

    Also hi haha
    Hey!
    Nope, don't worry- I also haven't got a confirmation email/letter after firming Warwick I guess they don't really tend to send any.
    I wouldn't worry about it, seeing as I don't think anyone else has too

    Okay this is kind of a very weird and random question but do you think Warwick has any society or something by which you could go on a trip to the United States?
    Not directly


    You may be interested in Comparative American Studies if you're interested in the Americas, and Warwick explorers if you just fancy travelling. I don't know of any other societies however :dontknow:

    Doing Law like a bore. I think JM is the only corridors set up for en-suite! Blubell, Arthur Vick, Sherbourne are all flats! But I doubt it'll matter much!

    Ah yeah, beginning to think a law degree is useless lol. Have a look at Sherbourne, it's cheaper than Jack Martin and still en-suite! £117 p/w Everything will be new aswell, since it's only being built as I type! Ah see you've joined the FB group Yeah I'm sure they are just trying to squeeze students out of every penny, since an en-suite room doesn't seem to need to be £40+ more expensive than Rootes.

    Yeah I was thinking of sherbourne but I would prefer to live in halls not flats as I've heard they are more sociable and stuff. And yeah sherbourne is less per week but it's a longer letting period than jm so would work out more expensive! Yes I sure have attempting to give myself some motivation but it just isn't working, am not confident at all for any of my exams!

    Yeah I am! I do IB, so my offer is 36 points, which is pretty much equivalent to AAB . I applied yesterday) I want to get either Sherbourne or Benefactor (was gonna put down JM, but figured that the chances of me ACTUALLY getting it are pretty slim). What are the three halls you want to get? Did you guys already have your exams? After mine, I feel like Warwick - is an illusion at this point and I am not getting in, I even had a dream about it today ahahahah
