Hello,
I have recently received a PhD offer and am now waiting to see which college I get allocated to. I thought I was punching well above my weight when applying so I did an open application, (I didn't think I had much of a chance so thought it would be pointless stating preferences) and also because I didn't actually realise at the time that graduates can live in college accommodation.
If anyone has had or knows of any experiences with the open application I'd be grateful if you could post it here.
I know it's done by a computer program and that my application will get sent to whichever colleges have the least number of applications in this particular cycle - being female, over 21, and postgraduate, is it likely that I'll get one of the female/mature/postgrad colleges?
Thanks
