UEA Applicants 2015

Original post by Kandybars

My application was only sent off yesterday but I received an offer for Philosophy today! I'm quite happy as I checked track about 3 times today but only noticed it when I got home as I got an email from UCAS saying something had changed on my application.

What time did you get the email/ i heard that ucas wont sent a email after 5.30pm untill the next day but unsure if its true?

I got the email at 4:58pm and track said the update was made at 4:31pm. I'm not sure whether or not that's true but UCAS does close at a certain time I guess. If you're unsure and, you can still check track anyway and you may get offers after 5:30pm

I just logged in randomnly because I had that inkling of a feeling and then half an hour later, it came through my email which said something has changed on your UCAS application.
Will you be firming your offer from UEA?

The course I'm looking at (English Lit) at UEA has entry requirements of AAB, if I'm predicted AAA will they ask me for that or stick to AAB?

I believe it depends on the institution. AAB is the minimum entry requirement so perhaps - it depends on other factors as well as you know :smile:

Hmm okay. I just don't want to lose my place if I end up getting AAB in August, and they'd asked for AAA.

I've applied and got a conditional offer of AAB and unconditional if firm and I'm predicted 4A*s at A level. So I wouldn't worry, I don't think they tend to offer higher than their standard entry requirements

I've now been upgraded to an unconditional offer OMG :biggrin:

My eyes starting watering when I saw it I'm so happy! Unfortunately UEA is not my first choice (Nottingham is but they haven't even sent an acknowledgement email yet :frown:

) but I'm still really pleased and proud of myself as it means they must've been impressed.

They also said:
"We expect that you’ll continue to excel in your studies and do remember that if you achieve at least AAA at A-level, or equivalent, you are guaranteed a £1500 scholarship in your first year."

I've got offers from Kent and Exeter and have also applied to York! I visited on one of their open days and my sister also went to the uni and it's so nice!! Norwich is also really lovely! Are you planning on going to an applicant day?

Aw! Yeah I'm going to go to an applicant day but I haven't booked it yet, probably should! ^_^ Well done on your offers, those are really great universities, I know someone who does Psychology at Kent and she loves it there! :smile:
