Re: Robert Gordon Applicants 2012!Hiya,(Original post by kareenxd)
Hey I'm in my first year at rgu for media! its such a great course, lots of coursework but only one exam for the first semester
i think you will really enjoy it! what accommodation are you looking at to stay?
Good to here from an actual student that its a good course, instead of just from the website that's quite reassuring for me!
Ive done my research into the course and tbh i cant wait to start, really hope they give me an offer. One exam's nice too
I think i would like to stay in the accomodation off campus, closer to the middle of town it seemed much more sociable and simple but functional which would suit me fine, cant remember the name of the complex though
Just out of interest can you remember how soon you received your offer from RGU, i know the UCAS deadline was only this Sunday but i sent off my application quite a while ago and it would be great to here from them! Cheers Calum

I can't remember when i received my offer and my acceptance letter is in aberdeen (im at home) i'll have a look when i go back at the weekend and let you know
if you get into the media course (which is likely, i mean i got in!) i've got a brand new book, barely used that i spent £30 on which is handy for one of the modules if you would like it?

Re: Robert Gordon Applicants 2012!phone them. its better(Original post by German_Saskia)
Still no answer to my E-Mail why my application was unsuccessful. Really like to know the reason. -
Re: Robert Gordon Applicants 2012!
Hello everyone. I have applied for a PhD at RGU ( February intake 2012), had submitted all the necessary documents, had the interview, which went well, followed -up, and still no news! Not only haven't i received any offer, but my application status reads " sent to graduate school leader for consideration". At least, if i'm rejected, i have the right to know. Are they toying with us, or something? Do u think i should call?

Re: Robert Gordon Applicants 2012!That's not much(Original post by German_Saskia)
Yep, turning 26 tomorrow.
Yeah got an offer from Greenwich. Still waiting on Napier and Abertay.
I imagined more like 30, when you said you couldn't wait 
Anyway, Congrats for that offer
I am still waiting, and I honestly don't expect any answers before February, but this is making me go nuts

Re: Robert Gordon Applicants 2012!I appiled for international Hospitality managment(Original post by Happylad)
I applied for International Business Management. What did you apply for?
Its really strange that I can find hardly any information about what its like to go to the University. Would love to know any reccomendations from current students about whats the best campus to stay at.
Yeah very little info about the university on the internet.. i know a few people that went there they say its a really good uni and they all have jobs .. i feel its a really good uni that has very good links with employers! -

Yeah this websites great! Thanks, it just gets a bit nerve racking waiting on Uni's only had one reply so far. Ill have to wait and see if i get in but if i do that would be great! Thanks a lot!
Also when i spoke to the women who runs the course she said it was really competitive, but there is always hope!

Re: Robert Gordon Applicants 2012!I haven't heard back yet... I want to do management. What grades did you get last year and what is your condition if you don't mind me asking?(Original post by grimshawwk)
Conditional offer for Management with Marketing! If this is anyone else's first choice then let me know
Also, it'd be awesome to hear from anyone that is currently doing the course!

Re: Robert Gordon Applicants 2012!I got an email for that too, but I've applied for Forensics(Original post by Caitlin_Healy)
Noope
, hate waiting haha! Have you? I just got an email about an applicant day, so theres still hope!
-
Re: Robert Gordon Applicants 2012!Oh no! I'm sorry(Original post by German_Saskia)
I got a rejection for Forensics 3 weeks ago. So I think if they give out my rejection 3 weeks ago you'll be fine.
that really sucks! You still have an offer from Greenwich, right? Have you decided if you'll accept that, or have you got any other offers?
I don't know, it doesn't guarantee I'll be getting an offer! We'll see. I just really want some news from any of my choices soon! Even if it is rejections. I've just finished my prelims and don't really know what to do with myself except constantly check emails (amongst studying, of course
)

Re: Robert Gordon Applicants 2012!No me neither! Same(Original post by Caitlin_Healy)

RGU are usually quite quick with replying too which makes the wait even worse haha. yeah true :P i found the small print about the applicant day not being a guarantee for getting into any courses quite funny
-
Re: Robert Gordon Applicants 2012!Yep right Greenwich. But still waiting on Abertay and Napier. RGU was my first choice but now I think it's Abertay. If I'll get rejections from the other two I'll be fine with Greenwich.(Original post by DragonHeartstring)
Oh no! I'm sorry

Re: Robert Gordon Applicants 2012!Aw man, the wait is killing me lol! Haha same! But i highly doubt they would give you an invitation if they weren't considering you(Original post by yb93)
