Subject: Biomedical Science

Subject: Management (Accounting & Finance)
Offer: AAB
Why Manchester?: Manchester is a really student friendly city, cost of living is not quite off the roof like London, plus student life is great. I've stayed here for 2 years and made quite a lot of friends, going to university will only make me more (hopefully?). Plus I won't have to work my ass off to get in due to the relatively low offer.
Accommodation you're thinking of selecting?: Grosvenor, Whitworth or Grafton.

Why manchester: always loved the city, being from Warrington I have been loads so some areas are familiar to me :P ooh and the academies always get bands I love playing them :biggrin:

(not that I can afford to go loads of gigs whilst being a student but still)

I have applied for Burkhardt House, Sheavyn and Grosvenor place.

Really looking forward to starting now (with hope I get the grades).. hurry up september!!

you'll need your UID number to create an account, which will be on any letters you've received since making it your firm choice.

Mr Ben

Subject: Maths
Offer: Unconditional (I'm old :P)
Why Manchester: The university really impressed on the Interview/Visit Day. Plus lots of options for final year modules.
Accomodation: Applied for Whitworth Park, Grosvenor Place and Grosvenor St.

Does anybody know when we'll be recieving notification on which accomodation we're getting into? I think conditionals find out after results day, hoping unconditionals find out earlier since I'm going out of my mind waiting for september and any information/correspondence from the uni might make the wait seem more bareable :P

Do you by any chance know when you'd get an offer if your offer is only conditional on CRB and Medical check, as presumably they'd come through before results day? I just really want my top accommodation! :P

Well, yours is essentially unconditional, so I'd assume it's the same as above.

Yep, that's correct unless you're a postgrad then there are two more options :-) Those are the three I applied to because my criteria is fallowfield and self-catered also :-P x
