UCL Applicants for 2016 Entry

Reply 1980

Sent my application last Thursday for Economics and Economics & Business with Eastern European Studies and got invited to access Portico earlier today :smile:

Do they generally take long to reply after that or it depends? Anyone else heard back in terms of offers from these two?

I applied for the same course and I haven't got the result :frown:

May I know your forecasted grades and how many subjects did u take for AS? :smile:

I'm kind of a rare case, sat my French Baccalaureate last year. But in terms of grades it's equivalent to A*A*A for A level (we don't have AS/GSCE equivalents :tongue:

) with an A* in maths :smile:

when did you apply?
Also I realise I sent mine quite late but had to wait for my reference...

If I repeated year 12, do I realistically have any chance of getting an offer for the BEng in Chemical Engineering? I'm predicted 3 A's.

Will I hear about the UCL questionnaire before or after getting an offer? Should I be checking portico or UCAS track? Thanks :smile:

Thank you, how do you know though? I spoke to their undergraduate admissions team and they said they'd favour candidates who had not repeated the year over my application so I would be given a lower priority.

I got an offer from them.. After a dreadlful previous academic year.

'They prefer' is not the same as 'they require'.

Hopefully they give me an offer but yeah, which course did you apply for? Or was it Chem Eng?

Hi Aran2121,

Just received an offer for the latter degree course. UCL is one of the worlds greatest multidisciplinary universities so is very highly respected by employers globally.I can only speak for Information Management but it seems like an excellent degree to me with strong industrial connections. Also check out the University of Manchester if you are interested in Information Management, it's certainly impressive.

Best Regards,

Thanks for sharing your opinion in regards to the degree. I'm still waiting for a response yet, also would the Information Management for business degree at UCL be potentially good to get into Investment Banking?

I have the same concern, however I have heard of a lot of people getting internships and placements at places such as Credir Suisse and Goldman Sachs, therefore there is definitely the opportunity!

That's certainly not a problem. I have seen various rankings showing UCL to be one of the best universities for a career in Investment Banking. With Canary Wharf and the City so close by, the university is ideally suited geographically and academically for a career in that particular area.
