Good idea.
This is what the timings were for me:

2nd Nov: Receipt of Application
10th Nov: Adversity Questionnaire
21st Dec: Rejection :redface:

(they were all given out within a couple of days)

Ahhh all so far away!

Yeah, it was.

Just so that people don't keep asking, this is when everything came through for me last year:

1st November - Receipt of application
10th November - Adversity questionnaire
9th December - Interview invite (All interview invites were given on same day)
14th January - Interview (They ran for a few weeks)
16th March - MY REJECTION (offers for others)

Thanks for that! Just wanted to ask, do interview offers come through UCAS or through the uni? Also, do they get emailed or posted?

They get emailed from the uni. You then have to book your interview online. I don't really remember getting anything through the post from them.

What does the questionaire ask you about :smile:

I was gonna copy and paste the form until I read this at the bottom: 'I agree not to disclose any element of the application process not publicly available, including my responses to it.'

It was basically a form asking about 'exceptionally adverse circumstances or factors out with your control'. If none of the things applied to you then you didn't have to reply.

Ohhh ok, so really it is only for people who maybe didn't meet the academic requirements due to a specific reason ie illness?

Yeh, like other people said, it's really just to see if you've been disadvantaged in any way, i.e. if you are a young carer you might not have had all the time you wanted to study for exams etc.

You'll get sent login details for 'my dundee' with your acknowledgement however they're taking their time this year with them.

Remember it says at the bottom that you don't need to fill it in and send it back unless you DO have any adverse circumstances you wish to tell them about.. I almost did until I read the last line of the email ha!
