Haven't decided yet, actually. I already have some friends in London, who want to live with me, but then dorms would probably be better to get to know people.. I can't decide really. You?


I think I'll try to get a dorm but if they give me something weird try to sort out something else - I think you can pm by clicking on the user then there's an option but I'm not sure :smile:

Just received an unconditional from Durham!! Still waiting on Edinburgh, though!! Has anyone applied/heard back from them?

Congrats on your offer! I have a conditional for Durham and I'm still waiting on Edinburgh :smile: None of my friends have heard back from Edinburgh either and they're notoriously slow with giving out offers. What's your first choice?

Thank you! I can't believe it! I'm on my gap year at the moment so I already had my grades but I got A*AB instead of AAA so I wasn't sure if I'd make it. I'm honestly not quite sure, it's between Durham, Sussex and Edinburgh (if I get in) it's all very uncertain, what about you?

Also from what I gather Edinburgh tends to hand out offers to the Scottish applicants first

My first choice is Durham at the moment but it also depends on if I get an offer from Edinburgh :smile:

Sounds reasonable! Can you apply for acommodation even if you have a conditional offer? I still need to get an English certificate and I think I'll only do it in may/june..

Oh really? I don't know about that - I do the IB in Scotland and no one at my school has heard back from Edinburgh :smile:

Ah ok, I'm not totally certain it's just what I've heard :smile: my sister goes to Edinburgh and I remember her saying all her Scottish friends received offers before those from England/Wales etc.
