Sounds interesting too, I subscribed for Journalism and Creative Writing and I want to combine it with English and Economics.
Oh that's a good thing in a way, on the other side, I want to be further away so that I may be a little more independent.

I'm starting Journalism and Creative Writing at Strath this year too! Are you looking forward to it?

They changed my offer to Unconditional last week. But the Accomodation Office was closed last Friday and Monday, so I think they only saw the Unconditional on Tuesday. I didn't hear anything yet. Hope to know where I will be staying by the end of next week. However I received my Final Certificate of Acceptance, that cheered me up a little! Congrats for the Unconditional

What were your choices then?

Mine hasn't been changed either, so don't worry! I had to email them yesterday cause sqa have sent my results to the wrong address and the girl said not to worry, as long as I have met the conditional requirements it won't affect my place, and my lecturer at college gave me my results before I finished anyways so I know i've got it.
I've applied to it twice, one with English and one with Italian, but I'm going to do English.
What have you been doing up until now?

I sent in everything per mail and e-mail and I received a mail telling me my documents have been forwarded to the course selector to check if I fulfill the conditions.

Well until now I only applied for JCW and I haven't figured out yet how I can select other courses, but as they require us to take part in 3 different courses the first year, they are surely going to tell me when I have to select the others!

Well, I just finished Secondary Education in Luxembourg and because I changed school a few times I'm a little older than most of the freshers.
I have been doing science classes, then changed to nursing school, but I didn't pass, so I ended up graduating in Economics at what you probably call 'highschool'.

What have you done so far? And how old are you? Have you applied for student accomodation on campus?

Hi, you should receive Welcome Pack via mail. Together with your Welcome Letter you will get your university system login details, then you will be able to use university email etc. You should get all the information about the options for choosing soon.
Last year I could customise my curriculum even before the start of the academic year. But you can wait for your meeting with study advisor (this will happen in September).

I'm so impatient

This seems to be a rather recurring theme with almost all of us...

My parents are bored with me always worrying about uni stuff so I'm so happy I can chat with you understanding my doubts and impatience! When are you going to arrive in Glasgow? Will you travel by plane?

Haha, I only let the steam out in this forum - my mum's had enough of my impatient whining when I was waiting for my matriculation results last year. But it's good I can shout out "I'm impatient!" somewhere.

I'm coming by plane close to the Freshers' Week.

I have no idea what happens with picking courses, I haven't heard anything from them.
I just finished a professional writing course at college, ive done a few things before this, i'll be 23 at the start of the course, and I know a few other people around about my age that are doing the course as well. I have my own place not far from the uni anyways, so I don't need student accomodation

I see! That's quite amazing. Are you starting the undergraduate course?

It's natural to be a bit worried about uni stuff, especially when you're a foreigner But believe me, people at university are very friendly and caring. As long as you have the required grades, nothing can go wrong. You'll all be fine

I just called Strathclyde again and they told me, they haven't yet made a decision yet. This takes way too long! I soo have to have these documents...

[Alice_strt]

Got ky accommodation offer today aswell, so no more headache for me, anyone else? Got quite upset that it wasn't my first choice!

I'm 18 and from a town just outside Glasgow so I'm just travelling there. No one from my school is on the course and I'm not great with new people so the first day will be a bit daunting!
