I am getting really impatient now too!
I think they maybe giving them out in bulk.

I thought Aston were slow in giving offers, I guess I was wrong.
Plymouth is taking the biscuit! :angry:

Dw I'm sure you'll get an offer I got one with BBB predicted grades and got my offer 3/4 weeks after I sent mine off. I do think they go in bulks, I was talking to this girl and she was saying how some of her friends got offers from Plymouth really late for optometry can't remember if it was Jan or March but I'm sure you'll be fine honestly!

when i went to the aston open day, they said that not many always make the grades so they can be a bit lenient. i don't manchester are very lenient, and i'm not sure about the other unis i applied to (cardiff, plymouth, glasgow). sorry, I hope that is of some help! :smile:) and good luck!!
I've just received my offer from Bradford University for Optometry.
I am returning to study as a mature student, has anyone else confirmed Bradford as their first choice?

Quite glad I didn't apply to Plymouth I couldn't have waited that long. Then again it has only been 2.5 weeks and I've only had 2 offers

I've been waiting since Nov 25th for Plymouth :frown: feels like sooo long
Hey guys,

I'm in my first year at Cardiff studying Optom, if you have any questions I'm happy to help :smile:
Don't worry too much about replies on offers- if I remember correctly, Plymouth was the last of my choices to respond back to me.
Hope everything goes well for everyone!
