Re: Queen's University, Belfast 2012 Applicants.You can still apply, and if you don't get in to your firm and have applied then i think you are still guaranteed accommodation... it just might not be in your first choice place(Original post by silver0)
Do you guys know if the accommodation is first come first served basis? I want to apply soon, but QUB is my insurance choice so I don't know if I can apply? -
Re: Queen's University, Belfast 2012 Applicants.Hey, from england(Original post by Cheshire_Ink)
Anyone form engaland having trouble with student finance..? Queens isn't showing up on my 'course finder' D: i've tried contacting queens/student loans but my calls keep getting put on hold
Help please!
it came up when i applied
just try typing it in then a drop down box should appear then select it from there. For the course it depends if its a BA/BSC etc., how long it is, 3/4 years etc. and if you're doing a placement year or not.
Sorry if that doesn't help, the whole thing's a right pain in the arse! -
Re: Queen's University, Belfast 2012 Applicants.Queens is my insurance but when I did my application I tried putting it in and it wasn't there which was really confussing, but I put my firm choice and it found it.. I don't know if it's because it's in NI, or you have to put the name or code of it differently.. Is there a way you can enter the name manually?(Original post by Cheshire_Ink)

Re: Queen's University, Belfast 2012 Applicants.I've got an offer for English too! Yay(Original post by louiseforster)
Hi everyone! I received an offer for Queens for English
On my UCAS Track cover letter it says the requirements are BBB, yet when I visited the March open day they said it was ABB? Any ideas? Little confused:
This was posted from The Student Room's iPhone/iPad App
hopefully will be seeing you in September
and if you got a B or higher at AS in the subject you dropped it's BBB, if you didn't then it's ABB

Re: Queen's University, Belfast 2012 Applicants.
Hey! Hopefully starting this September doing Biomedical Sciences, although my offer is ABB/ABC with the A in Biology or Chemistry, and I'm seriously doubting I could get it!
Anyone know if Queen's are at all flexible with the grades?
Also, is anyone else going from Wales? I feel like the only one haha! -
Re: Queen's University, Belfast 2012 Applicants.God, I hope they're flexible.. I'm doubting my chem grade too!(Original post by zipitred)

Re: Queen's University, Belfast 2012 Applicants.I just find Chemistry exams so difficult! I understand all the work, but it comes to the exams and I'm hopeless(Original post by spatterson9)
God, I hope they're flexible.. I'm doubting my chem grade too!
I think I could've gotten the A in Biology, but I made a massive mistake in my last exam and basically kissed goodbye to an A in that. I hope they'll be a little flexible with grades

Hi! My name's Elise. I'm heading to Queen's from America in September for the Comparative Ethnic Conflict MA program. I haven't figured out where I'll be living yet, eeek. Is anyone else in the CEC program? Or an international student?
See you all around!

Re: Queen's University, Belfast 2012 Applicants.I might be coming from Cornwall, so most likely to fly there, which is a bit annoying because i wont be able to take much stuff, but then again its a fast way to get there(Original post by NGlynn94)
