When the co-ordinator sends of the application, does it say on track straight away? I asked my teacher when she's going to send it off and she said she would today. However, the last update from UCAS is that the references have been approved. Is it the case of my teacher not sending it off or the delay for UCAS to reply?

I had the EXACT same issue. I had finished my application about a week and a half before we sent it off and it took her ages to write my reference. Good luck with your application when you send it off though! I've applied to Bristol, Warwick and Nottingham as well but for Law (got an offer from Warwick today). Tell me how it goes for you!

"I'll have it done by the end of the day" she said. "You can see your references then and send it" she said.
:no:

Congrats on your offer already! What do you need? :awesome:

I'll let you know :top:

That irritating moment when you complete your application early but your referee takes ages to do their bit :facepalm:

Gotta wait for my references to be put together then I can send it off!

I GOT MY FIRST OFFER!! Kent, for Criminology. Really confused though- when I applied the grades were ABB, but I was offered BBB. So I just looked on the Kent website and now the general entry requirements have changed to BBB? No idea why they would change the entry requirements

Because the demand for that subject has decreased, so they responded by lowering the entry reqs. Entry reqs are mostly governed by how popular the course/uni is.

Got acknowledgement emails for 4/5 universities now! Have Oxford, King's, York & St Andrews, only waiting for Warwick. Sent my application yesterday afternoon. King's said they most likely will get back to me with a decision within 6 weeks... 6 WEEKS!!!! That's freaking scary :ahhhhh:

What if they don't get back within 6 weeks??

okay, is ANYONE else applying for biology courses? I've seen a few for biochemistry/biomedical/neuroscience but not a single person apply for biology??? And I'm the only person in my year doing biology (although, our class is only 6 now) its very strange…
