    I sent my application on the 9th of Nov! Received an acknowledgement the 14th of Nov! Your acknowledgement's probably on its way now! : )
    I wouldn't mind getting an offer directly, u know!

    Hope for the best

    Ahh this is making me nervous! Everyone's getting offers and I haven't even received an acknowledgement yet haha. I sent my application off on the 14th of November as well so I'm guessing it's a bit late .. :L

    Ỳeah! I'm applying for it, you don't mind me asking what your predicted grades are do you? Or when you sent your UCAS off? Just a little worried now everyone is getting offers!
