I just got the invitation too. I guess they will email us within the next few days if we need an interview, on the PDF - it did say there was a one on one talk anyway though but this is probably informal.
Does this mean they pick us depending on the applicant day then?
Yeah I didn't understand that bit. A chance to speak "individually" with a member of staff yet no "formal interview" unless emailed??
I'm assuming that this is a lot about understanding more about the course - they will definitely be making some kid of judgements though I would have thought - hard to know without being interviewed!
Just accepted the invite and yes I have viewed the PDF. Although I'm wondering if they will inform us within a few days if we require an interview or would we have received that before this invite.
Also my UCAS track still hasn't been updated. Has yours?

Yeah agree with you too. I guess we only get an offer depending on the applicant day as I assume none of us actually got an offer from them on UCAS?
Been to the Open Day, I thought it was very good but the campus is smaller than I thought!
Yeah that's what I'm thinking because my UCAS Track is still showing that Surrey is "considering" my application.
But on the other hand since the PDF says no formal interviews unless contacted directly, how do they make decisions. I'm tempted to drop them a line, feel inpatient haha

I have the exact same thought, maybe if we don't get asked for a formal interview, they base it on the one on one talk or the team games is well? Maybe you should drop them a line and let us know here when they reply! Tempted to know too!
Hi same here. Applied to Chemeng and have been invited to the applicant's day on december. Not sure if going cause it's quite far away. Are you thinking of going?
Huge congratulations to everyone who has received an offer! If you've got any questions, just give us a shout and we'll try to answer them for you.
Hi. I have received an invitation to the applicant's day. However because I live in the North, and they haven't told me yet if it is an interview or not, will I be in disadvantage if I don't go? I have applied to Chemeng.
