I wanted an offer straight out!.

I really don't want to go but on the email, if successful they will upgrade the conditional offer.

I hate interviews, I think I am a good applicant, not the best. But I know in an Interview, I will mess up and wont be able to show them.

I had one email inviting me to an applicant day, then I had another inviting me for interview and the chance to upgrade the offer, i'm going to go now :smile:

Is it an upgrade to unconditional or just easier grades do you think???

Not too sure, could be unconditional or maybe lowering grade requirements!

I know 😔... I applied 15th December though so a little bit later than you.. It's the only Uni I have applied for so I have all hopes on one chance! It's so annoying lol..

So what's the interview? Did You get an offer but if you attend they upgrade it? Xx

I have no idea. If successful in the interview, there is a chance of upgrading the offer.

Part of the Selection day will involve a group discussion.
I really hope there is not an assessment.

I hope they respond to you soon!

If you don't mind me asking, when is your interview?
Mines is on the 30th of Jan but I want to defer it.
The 20th of Feb, I think is the next time they will be holding interviews.

Me too! The City Campus doesn't too bad either but I think Fallowfield is pretty amazing judging by the pictures. Have you visited any of them yourself?

I have not visited them yet and I don't know when I will be able to see it. Luckily the accommodation is not even too expensive!
