Applied for Psychology on the 14th of October to York, Buckingham, Warwick, Loughborough and Reading! Got an offer back on the 21st for Reading :h:


I want to apply to Reading, but I already have 5 and I can't decide which one to switch out. Congrats on your offer, though!

Thank you! :smile:
Go with your heart and if you do decide to switch one out for Reading, maybe compare your choices on other statistics and then choose the choice to switch out with that?
Good luck with your choices! :h:

What were your AS grades, and what are your predicted A2 grades, if you don't mind me asking?

And yeah, I'll have a think. :smile:

Hey! I applied for Psychology on the 16th October, and it was eventually sent to the universities on the 20th October because UCAS was extra busy!! I've applied for Bath, Birmingham, Bristol, Exeter and UEA. I got an unconditional offer from UEA on the 21st October, and then got an offer from Bristol yesterday afternoon! So excited and shocked that I've gotten offers back so quickly omg. Best of luck to everyone:smile:

Thanks!
Where did you apply?
The campus was so lovely. The main campus has a lake in the middle of it and it's so pretty. Some of the accommodation in the middle of the campus wasn't great as it was in an old 60s building which really needed refurbishing but the other accommodation was had recently been refurbished so was very nice.
The psych department was great. It's rated as one of the top departments for research alongside OxBridge and St. Andrews which is what really attracted me. The staff there were really friendly and ran some mini lectures on the open day which were very interesting. :h:

Hi! I'm a first year student at Bristol. Funny enough, you've applied to the exact same unis as I had last year! From my experience, I applied to oxford, ucl, bath and Nottingham at around the oxbridge deadline. I got an offer from Nottingham at around 3 weeks after applying. Got rejected from oxford due to tsa scores. I applied to bristol at around january as back up because at the time I did not receive bath and ucl responses. Then I got an offer from Bristol and rejection from ucl at around the same time. Bath took ages but managed to get an offer by the end of march. I think that with your as levels and predicted grades, you'll probably get resposes from Nottingham and Bristol soon. If you got any questions feel free to ask


Hi! I've also applied to Oxford and Bristol. If you don't mind me asking, what was your TSA score and what are your GCSE grades? What is it like studying at Bristol? I just received an offer from them - so happy! Thank you in advance.
