    Anyone who has applied for Business Management? Have you received anything else apart from the b-day card?

    Hi, potential course mate! Unfortunately, I didn't go because I live too far away from Aberdeen but it definitely seems a great place. What about you?

    Hey!!! Yeah I did, only live 30 minutes down the road from Aberdeen. It came across really well, with a lot of emphasis on the year of work experience!!

    Oh, you're so close. That's great! I liked the syllabus very much and the graduate prospects are quite high in the rankings. I really hope I'll receive an offer. Wish you luck with your application.

    Hey,

    I applied for Forensic Science. RGU is my Firm choice. Got an E-Mail from them saying they will wait until January to make a decision.
    I've applied for Forensics too

    I'm not sure if it's my firm choice, but it is probably the one I'm most likely to be accepted into!

    I've also applied to Glasgow, Strathclyde, Edinburgh and St Andrews, not all for Forensics of course. Glasgow/Edinburgh/St Andrews I've applied for Biology, and Strathclyde for Forensic Biology.

    What about you, where else have you applied?

    EDIT: I just got the acknowledgement email yesterday from RGU (my application was sent on 22nd December). Wish UCAS would hurry up with the Welcome Package thing... (I know, I'm being a bit impatient :P)

    Hey I'm applying for pharmacy at RGU, but it's my backup as it's so far away from home that travel would be a nightmare! Have any pharmacy peeps received offers yet?

    Just applied for Forensics. Applied to Glasgow Caledonian but got an unsuccessful. Further applied to Edinburgh Napier, Abertay and Greenwich. Greenwich already sent me an offer. Nothing from the others. Only acknowledgements.
