    I have a similar question, so I'll help with yours. Your offer letter is in UCAS Track if you click on the course your applying for and get to a page that says "offer letter" in red at left top. You can print the letter directly or copy and paste it into word and then print that. Simple.

    Maybe this is a silly Question but: When sending your offer letter to them, do you need to include a cover letter from yourself saying "This is my offer letter...bla...bla...bla hope this is ok...bla...bla..thankyou."??

    I don't think you do, I was just gonna post a copy of the offer lettor to Saas and bung it in an envelope, but my mum think I need to write them a letter stating the obvious.

    Please settle this arguement.

    I'm an EU student and have applied to SAAS as well..
    Can't we just scan it and e-mail it to them?

    I scanned it and emailed it to them with my ref. no. I called and asked and they said we could either email it, fax it or send it per mail.
    (The email address would be saas_4@scotland.gsi.gov.uk if anyone needed it)
