I've got an offer from Aberdeen, I think the offer is for BBB. :smile:

When did you reply and when did you receive the offer?

I applied to Bristol, Oxford Brookes, Aberystwyth, Reading and Plymouth the day before the 15th January deadline, and have heard back from all of them except Reading! I'm a mature student so already have 3 Bs at A level though, which might account for the speedy responses!

I haven't replied yet, still waiting on The Courtauld Institute to get back (will probably be a rejection!), however, got the offer on the 17th of January :smile:

i was absolutely shocked, i thought my interview went terribly and had pretty much ruled it out as an option because of that so i was so made up when i got an offer!!

I've read a few posts from people that said they've received interviews from Leeds, how did it go?
I have my interview on Thursday and even though Leicester has already given me an offer that I'm planning on taking I'm still really nervous about this interview!

Recieved a letter from Leeds yesterday to say I've got an interview on the 24th. I'm now panicking, has anyone else got on then????
Also, anyone who's already had one what did they ask/ what was it like?

Hi, I had my interview today! There was a group of us and we had a presentation about the course for about half an hour. It was all very general, stuff you're quite likely to know already. Then we were given individual interview times and while we waited we could go for a coffee or sit outside and wait.
Mine was an informal interview so when it was my turn he reminded me of that and told me not to worry, he wasn't going to ask me any 'weird' questions. They ask a few questions about your personal statement but they also have a few set questions. I applied to History of Art with Museum Studies so I as asked what I thought the link between history of art and museum studies was, what I wanted to do after the course (Masters and then curator), had I been to any exhibitions recently, what do I think of the museums around Leeds and which was my favourite. I can't really remember what else I was asked.
He asked if I had any questions and one of mine was "when do I find out?" and he actually gave me a conditional offer right then and there. I don't believe I was the only one to get that, either, so you won't really have to wait for that.

Best of luck to you :smile:

YES i've applied to Warwick and still waiting patiently for a response. Just wondered what the option is to study abroad? And also what is the uni like socially, I've always pictured Warwick to be in the middle of nowhere, thanks! :smile:

Hi, I applied for History of Art and English literature on Reading, late November and didn't hear anything yet. I am a mature (24), international student - so i guess they take their time... But I did receive rejection from another course from Reading. So i don't know what are they waiting for really.

Anyone heard back from Reading yet?

Good luck with offers.

Reading are the only one I'm waiting for... All the others responded within a few days a couple of weeks ago! I'm only 25 so I feel a bit odd referring to myself as a mature student!

Yeah - it is odd, i don't feel like mature, I probably would if I have a kid. But on a paper I am so what you gonna do.
Well Reading is probably special :smile:

Anyone heard from the Courtauld?
They said they would send interview invitations by today... If I got nothing, does it mean a rejection?

Haven't heard from Courtauld yet, thought it was the 22nd or something? Eughh!
Also- had a group interview at Leeds, generally hated the experience but still got an offer from the ABB. :smile:

Congrats! I got an offer from Sussex (35 IB points) and an interview at Saint Martins. When did you send your Courtauld Questionnaire?
