Loughborough Applicants and FAQs 2015

Hi WhosWavey

I think the best thing to do is to contact the department directly and have a chat with them. Yes work experience and the like do help, but they'd be able to give you more info.

Best person to talk to is Sue Rolland and you get her on 01509 227 272 or e-mail her at [email protected]

Hope this helps.

There's parking and it's free! But very confusing loool

Hi Vicky, my son applied to Loughborough early December to study engineering and has heard nothing other than an acknowledgement of receipt of his application a day or two after that. He emailed engineering admissions last week for an update and has not had a response to his email either. Do you think it may be wise to phone them?

Are you aware of whether there will be parking on campus available for visitors when we come to the open day? Or will we be required to use a nearby car park?

Hi Mumsknowbest

Yes I'd give them a call. If you let me know which engineering department he applied to, I can give you the best number to call.

Hi Vicky, thanks for that but the engineering dept has responded to his email today to advise they have just processed his application. No update on UCAS track as yet but his email from Loughborough did outline 2 dates for upcoming campus visits/tours. Am I right in thinking this sounds positive ??!!

Hey Vicky.
Quick question is applied for english and history. I want to change it to english and sports science, the entry is the same. I have the requirement of an English Alevel, just wondering if that Is possible possible.
Thanks

Hi Mumsknowbest

Honestly I have no idea, I don't know if it's a standard e-mail that's sent to everyone or not. Hopefully it is positive!
Vicky

It was positive! He has had an offer. Thanks for your advice.

Hi Vicky,

I received a letter at home congratulating me on being offered a place for BS Product Design Engineering by the Loughborough Engineering department. It also included information about post-application visit days, some information about the university and an engineering prospectus. I was really excited to get the offer and was thinking about firming it, but it was not yet on UCAS. I emailed the admission office and they told me that for my application an offer is still not finalised. I saw on my letter an email for the engineering admission office and emailed them but I still dont have any reply. Do you think I should wait more to get an answer and is it a common thing to receive a letter before getting an offer? I just want to add that I have already graduated high school (therefore have all of my grades) and I have been for an year in another UK university, but I am applying this year for a different major. Does this kind of situation takes longer to process?

Hiya,
I was just wondering how many people do you guys take for the Industrial Design course?

Thanks!
