Hi QUB, I've applied for the MSCi maths course which needs 3 As and I'm currently in my final A level year. Although I've been accepted, I'm worried I won't be able to get the grades as I'm struggling with Biology. If I don't accepted into the Masters course by a narrow margin (let's say I get ABB), will I get into the Bachelor's course with the option to potentially re apply for masters at the end of it or am I rejected full stop?

Would just like some peace of mind, will still try for 3As regardless.

Thanks for your time.

Hi Holiner,

Great news! :clap2:

Applicants who fail to achieve the conditions of their offer for admission to the MSci Mathematics degree in August, but who meet the requirements for the BSc programme, would normally be offered a place on the BSc degree.

Students who commence the BSc degree in Mathematics may have the option of transferring to the MSci programme up to the end of Stage 2, depending on examination performance.

We hope that helps.

Hi Stephen,

Thank you for this information. Would be able to let me know as well one more thing, plase.

The school had said that the offers for nursing will be made on 5th of May. I was just wondering, is that the last or the first day when the offers will be given? Is there a chance that they will be send before 5th of May as well, since this is the last day on UCAS?

Thank you!

Hey, I've applied for Psychology quite early and I am still waiting to hear back from Queens. The deadline is approaching and I can't help it but feel a little worried. I am not sure whether the lack of response is a positive or negative indicator!

Hello, I'm applying through ucas extra, will I still be eligible for the scholarships for being an english student or was this only first time applicants not ucas extra?

Hello, I am currently a direct entry student (went directly into year 2 of a degree after completing a relevant HND).

Recently, for numerous reasons, I've been regretting my choice of going directly into 2nd year (skipping 1st year). This year has not went so well due to personal reasons (including health reasons) and I also feel like I have missed out on some important teaching which would have been done in the first year. I would really like to do it starting from 1st year of the degree.

I was wondering if I can start over from 1st year (of the same degree course). If so, how would I go about this and is there anything important I should know about it?

Also any info in terms of student finance funding.

Hi, I'm only asking since I couldn't find it on the website. In the entrance requirements section say for BSc Chemistry, it says 'Chemistry and a second science subject'. Would that could from the core sciences of Maths, Biology and Physics or would it be an extended list? If it is an extended list what is included in it? Thank you for your time :smile:

I'm still waiting for a reply to see if I was successful or not in getting a place on to the course I chose at Queens. Any idea how long it will take until I get a reply? I'm very stressed out at the moment because if I don't get in i'll need to arrange accommodation for my insurance choice as soon as possible.

Hey guys. I'm just wondering about what we can use as ID when registering. I don't have a valid passport right now, and so can I use an ID card I got from validateuk.co.uk?
