UCL September 2015 Applicants

Is it acceptable to email the admissions to see where your application is standing?
I'm getting soooo fidgety!

What does your portico status say?

if you do that and get a respond, can you tell me so i could do the same
my status is still "application received""

Application received.
It's just I applied really early and i think there have been at least 2 sets of interviews already- so I'm really curious as to whether I just haven't been successful!

I think they just haven't looked at your application yet because when they were looking at my application then it switched to "application being considered by admissions" or something like that and on that day I received my decision, speaking to others and seeing on here I think that's how UCL operate as soon as they switch it to that then you hear very shortly after.That's why I think they just haven't come to your application yet. Which course is this?

Ah right, it does say this though:

"
Application status
Application Received
Many thanks for applying to UCL. We were pleased to receive your application which is now being considered. Our degree programmes attract a large number of well qualified applicants so it may be some time before we can give you a decision. We shall, however, endeavour to consider your application as quickly as we can."

..Which makes it sound like they have looked at it?

Oh it's all very confusing! And I've applied for English.

I know that English at UCL is very competitive so maybe they wanted to wait till the deadline and will then start being a bit quicker with their responses now that deadline has passed? I can understand how frustrating waiting can be, hope you hear soon!

Yeah it is. And I hope you're right!

Thanks very much

Also wrt what they've said I think that means they've received your application but an admissions staff hasn't gone through it yet because when they do it will update to that on portico, they're not very clear but same happened for me!

Congratulations then! I'm still up for being you btw

Thanks! Well, I was actually rejected by LSE last year, went to Warwick for approx. 3 weeks. Loved the people, hated the university, left, got a job at the embassy in Romania, a guy there told me about the EBEES course, loved the idea, visited a friend at UCL and completely fell in love with the uni and now I am only applying there so I better get in. Oh and I have also applied to St. Andrews but only because tuition fees are lower there so there would be some money left to eventually do a Master's degree at a university I really love.

I see. Yeah I have a friend at Warwick who doesn't seem so happy with the uni. And congrats on getting an embassy job!

Just got a biological sciences offer, need AAA.
Best of luck to everyone else who is still waiting!

Ahh that's great!! Congrats!!
When did you apply with what predicted grades?? xx

Thank you! I applied some time ago, late october, predicted AAAB so fingers crossed. yourself? what you studying? what uni's?

Yes I do haha!
King's is great, but their course has only been introduced this year and right now it's not accredited so I'm not sure how that will be perceived. With their reputation though, I'm sure it's only a matter of time.
QM is a very good safe choice, I myself am thinking of it being my 2nd choice, if KCL rejects me.

Ahh that's nicee!
I applied in December for Biological Sciences with a predicted 39 IB 666 at HL which i think converts into an AAA for A levels!
UCL and Imperial are both my Reach unis (I'd die if I get an offer from them) and then from the other 3, York (my safety) is the only one that has offered me a conditional place!

anyone got an offer: Management science?
