Universities that definitely don't give out offeres till 15th Jan?

I'm applying for psychology and I don't think any of the unis I've applied to give out early offers for psychology :s-smilie:

Haha I'm northern Irish! But I hated queens at the open day so the only other uni here is ulster, plus my boyfriend lives in Glasgow. :P went to the Stirling open day and absolutely adored it. If I don't get in there ill cry but they apparently don't give offers till feb! :frown: plus I've lived in both England and Wales, hated both so Scotland or home it is! (Sorry for the life story, kind of just got going there haha) a boy in my class has an interview for Cambridge, for physics though.

I lived in Manchester (please don't hate me for saying I didn't like England) Queens, it didn't have the uni feel for me, had to take a good walk to get to the psychology department and when I got to the talk it was rubbish! Plus I didn't like the student union either :P I love Scotland. This time two years ago I hadn't been in Scotland, now I've been in every city apart from Inverness! (Stirling is my fave obviously) where abouts in England do you live?

I think it's corpus? Anyway, hope you get invited to an interview!

Oh manchester is in the north, ive never been to the north of England either :P I live in West Sussex, the south is nicer i think (gross generalisation there aha). Oh well they are all very valid reasons not to like somewhere!!

Ah I applied to corpus and have an interview this week :smile: Did you apply for the MA or BSc route ?

Oh wow! Congrats! I've heard one of the psych questions is, can a thermostat think? Dunno if that's rubbish or not! Think you're prepared?

Yeah, I've heard the south is quite nice, had a wee look at some unis there but I'm quite limited with my predicted grades. ABC. Done quite bad in my AS as I was going through a rough patch but oh well, still on track for Stirling :biggrin:

Again, good luck!

I think it was the times/guardian article or something on Oxbridge interview questions. My AS were exactly the same! Really good that you turned it around :biggrin:

For Psychology? Wow thats so good! Are you an international applicant? where else did you apply?

A friend of mine has applied to Edinburgh Napier and Heriott Watt too, and has received offers for both so you should be expecting something soon! She also had the same predicted grades (ABC).

Well done :smile: That explains it, they do all the internal offers first and then UK offers are done after jan 15th :/ sucks..... I think Its because they take such a high proportion from abroad. Is it your top choice?
