    Hello everyone! I'm from Bulgaria and have applied to Heriot-Watt University for the Economics course, still waiting for an offer. I'm thinking to put it as insurance so i would like to ask someone who is or was at the university about either it's reputation and the city. Thank you in advance.

    I was just wondering, does anybody know whether or not Heriot-Watt send out letters when you have received an offer?

    anyone had any offers for actuarial science or financial maths? they seem to be taking longer than any of the others, how long did it take for any offers to come in from the time they were sent for others?

    I know some people from my school have had offers for actuarial science - back in November - think they took a couple of weeks from the time they applied to come through. Also they're unconditionals don't know of anyone with a conditional.

    Those of you who were invited to applicant only days, how did they invite you? Did you get a separate email?

    Really? I thought other people got conditonals for actuarial science around that time?

    I'm pretty such decided that I'm going to decline anyway, and use UEA as my insurance instead (firming Kent). Its just so far away, and looking at pictures of the accomodation it doesn't look the best. Neithers is UEA tbf, but at least I can come home pretty reguarly as its only two hours away rather than 8!
