Yeah thankyou that did help :smile:

Nice to find someone else doing the same course, have you applied for the 3 year or 4 year with work placement? :smile:

I applied for the 3 year course but I'm thinking about changing it if I get in so that I can do a work placement :smile:

Do I have to firm Bath now to have a choice in my accommodation? I'm going to an Exeter open day at the end of the month, so I'm still unsure. Will there be enough time from the end of March when I've made my decision to April 3rd?

It depends what accommodation you want. If you want en-suite, then it's doubtful, as it goes quite quickly. Otherwise you should be fine :smile:

That's the thing. I want en-suite like in Solsbury. I need AAA for Bath and AAB for Exeter. Bath really impressed me during the open day I went to and I guess it makes sense to just firm it right now. If I end preferring Exeter then I can simply just go there anyway. I'm pratically convincing myself what to do right now haha!

no worries, the accommodation application is not open yet and I think it won't be until the end of March so take your time to decide ;d

Actually as per the UCAS site if you firm a university you have a contract to attend that college if you are accepted. If you have changed your mind and wish to go to your insurance choice you would have to request your firm choice to release you then only will your insurance choice be able to accept you. In the time delay caused your insurance university may have filled all their places n not be able to offer you a place. So do be careful about how you go about this.

Hi guys, is it advisable to firm asap? I have a conditional offer and will most likely end up firming Bath with Exeter as my backup. What I originally had in mind is to firm after I've completed my exams in May, just so that if I mess up I can select other choices.
P.S I will be staying on campus for my 1st year
Thanks in advance!

I think you only can reply to your offers until May 8th, then it gets more complicated, see the post above yours.
Unless you totally screw your exams up ;p (wish you the best, just answering the question!) then you can go through clearing to some worse unis. But choose before May, the clearing is there in case you screw things up so don't worry about it, and just try to do your best. If you got an offer it means that you can do it!

Ha yeah, although, I would have made Bristol my insurance had they not rejected me, because I live there, so Cardiff was really my third choice but Cardiff is still a brilliant uni so don't matter really :biggrin:

Just got an offer for Computer Science (Placement)! Definitely firming, with Exeter as my backup. Hopefully see you guys there (providing I get AAA, which is no easy task!).

I just contacted the accommodation team at Bath. They said that it only takes 48 hours from the choice being made and it showing up on their system.
