Re: Access to Leeds help?!I've not heard of any kind of limit. If you meet two criteria then you're most likely going to be accepted!(Original post by einstein123)
How many applicants from each school are allowed to be accepted, because a lot of people from my school have applied?

Re: Access to Leeds help?!This sounds promising. I only meet 2 of the criteria while many friends that have also applied meet 3 or more.(Original post by StitchMad)

Re: Access to Leeds help?!(Original post by Ash10)
I still haven't received my confirmation letter :/ I sent my application a week and a half ago and the deadline is today. Should I call them/ e-mail them seeing as I haven't heard a reply yet?
The A2L department is closed over Christmas. I don't think you'd get a reply until Christmas is over. -

Re: Has anyone received an offer through Access to Leeds?Thank you(Original post by Beast1)
I just got my offers... AAB and BBB for economics and politics! They were both on the same UCAS conditional offer link
Sent mine in about mid-Novemeber. I didn't get a confirmation from A2L department... That's when I applied as well - there is still hope. 
Congratulations on you offer

Re: A2L offersCongrats! Leeds has to be your firm to get the A2L offer, if it's your insurance you'll have to get the standard offer(Original post by POWW!)
Ok so I got my offer from Leeds in like the 3rd week of Nov and have been accepted on to A2L.
Do I have to firm Leeds first to get the A2L offer? and does the offer always go down by 40 Ucas points or is it up to 40 Ucas points?
And yeah it's always 40 points as far as I've ever heard, good luck! -

Access To Leeds-is UCAS form needed?I applied for A2L and sent the A2L form offer around xmas, a few days after I sent my UCAS form (to study Physics).
Before sending it I rang Leeds Uni to ask if they needed my UCAS form..it had my other choices on it and I thought if they saw this it could negatively impact my application maybe?
They said they only need it if I'm only applying to local Unis (which I'm not) so I didn't attach my UCAS form to my A2L form.
Now I'm wondering how they are going to see my personal statement, qualifications, A Level grades, etc.! What should I do? -

Re: Access To Leeds-is UCAS form needed?Try n phone them up and ask if they've received your application then ask if there's anything missing and if you should send it again. When I phoned to ask about it, the lady on the phone was really really nice and checked everything for me. Good luck!

I rang them up, it was an answer machine, left the most retarded message ever (hate answer machines)! :P But atleast I won't have to worry about it now, just have to be patient for a phonecall back, so thanks for the advice

I think since you've definitely got an A2L offer, you can firm Leeds Uni now, but I'm not too sure, sorry
On another note, what course have you applied for?
