    I've applied for English Literature, deferred entry 2008.

    I sent my application on 9th October - still waiting for a reply and feeling a little impatient at the moment!

    On their website, they say that they usually reply within 4 weeks of receiving the application.

    Oh, and there is also an application tracker thing on their website; you just type in your UCAS application number and it tells you your status (no different from Track, but it's still fun ).

    Go to http://portal.rhul.ac.uk/ and click on the red rectangle marked 'Application Status Tracker'.

    I only found it by accident - don't know why they don't make more of a deal about it (Nottingham send you a letter in the post about their's!)

    Same with me - maybe they have more applicants (and so more choice) this year?! I remember them saying that they had far more interest at their recent open day than they expected... I just hope not too many people have discovered London Uni's best-kept secret! :rolleyes:

    Wow thanks for posting that Royal Holloway track link! I never noticed it was there. Mine reads:

    "Application status:Your application has been received but an offer has not yet been made." :p:

    When they said they usually make offers 4 weeks after receiving applications, was that for all subjects?

    My UCAS was sent on the 5th too. I'm trying to be calm about it all but I'm really curious now and I haven't got any offers yet

    i have applied to study drama in 2007! Hoping at least to get an interview, but they told us 1 in 10 applicants get a place, so i'm not holding out that much hope!

    It looks like the universities we've applied to like to take their time when giving out offers. I wouldn't be suprised if I get most of my offers in the new year.

    I'd have thought you get your offers when everybody else has handed in their UCAS forms. Handing it in early is just a positive reflection on your organisation skills..or something

    Yeah I would have thought that RHUL and Bath would be the quickest.
