    I still haven't got mine either. Mine's been unconditional for ages now as well. Just have to keep being patient I guess...would be nice to have something that makes me feel like I'm going to start uni in just over 3weeks though...
    We should get it if others are. So are you studying law at salford?

    I would probably just phone them and get on their case.

    When I was ready to start my first year, I'd already had my place confirmed for a year as I'd taken a gap year and deferred the entry.
    They'd forgotten to send me my Welcome Pack (lots of people had it sent through, but I hadn't), and I had to phone/email so many times, I got it mid-September, though I should have had it much earlier.

    If you've had your unconditional place for a while, just give them a telephone
    From experience, Salford can sometimes be a bit slow at sending correspondence (or maybe I'm just unlucky!).

    If anyone has any questions about Salford, I'll do my best to answer them I'll be going into my 3rd year in September.

    yh i did A levels. so in your get ready guide did it include your id and stuff??
    Yes you do. If you haven't got it by early next week I think it would be a good idea to give them a call.
