The "I Still haven't got any offers yet" Thread.

Any of you like me - sitting impatiently waiting for offers?

Everyone else around you is getting multiple, and your UCAS still says "No recent updates"?

You've had emails from the Uni's, they've all received your application but you've heard nothing yet?

This thread is for those who are jealous/stressed/and nervous that you've STILL heard nothing back.

I thought all of us needed a bit of sanctuary considering the Track thread is full of happy offer receivers :tongue:

All in jest, but if you're in my shoes feel free to vent your feelings here!

I feel your pain!! I applied for Lit at Queens two weeks ago and have also seen someone else with an offer - not great for the nerves. Good luck with it!
I have sent my application off on the 17th of November and I've only got 1 offer yet :frown:((
I just said on another thread, i've applied for English and Film at Warwick, Exeter, St Andrews, King's and Lancaster. It's been two weeks and nothing! I know two weeks is not long, but it's horrible hearing other people getting offers and you're not getting anything :frown:

I got my first offer before I expected itso I never had time to get nervous. You poor soul it would've destroyed me not having anything :frown: Though as some unis say 'no news is good news'.

HEY I'm doing english lit too and I've applied for QM and RHUL too, I've heard nothing from my other choices either so I know how you feel :frown:
I'm in a similar (and bizarre) situation. I have had four acknowledgements, no offers. The fifth uni are not accepting undergraduates next year, so I am not gonna get anything from them....

I'm applying to do Philosophy btw.

Likewise!!
For me, every time I heard something, it was a rejection. I take silence to mean they're really considering all of your application.
