Thank you very much! (Everyone is so nice on here!) My offer is for Van Mildert (Not even sure how you spell it, and I want to do English!! Oops) My form was sent on the 23rd September and Durham sent me a letter saying they had received the form on the 7th of October. I didn't get that acknowledgement until the 1st of November and the offer came through on November 8th. All in all, it took about a month and a half.

I'm really happy for you *grin* Your form went off a couple of weeks before mine, so that's reassuring for me as well :wink: I *really* want a Durham English offer :smile:

My friend was the JCR president of Van Mildert 2003/04... so I've heard only good things :wink:

Oh wow, brilliant. I have no idea what Van Mildert is like - I just know that it's not the most competitive college which is why I applied. I must have just scraped in 'cause I'm definitely not anything special! If good things are all you're hearing then that's a good sign. More excited now! Good luck with the application, hope you get what you want! Sure you will, from your other posts it seems like you're a very bright lass!! x x x

By the way, do you live in Keighley, West Yorks?? I know my thing says Middlesborough but I actually live near you (If you live where I think you do)! Really must change my thing - moved house recently!

Reaction: Yay, can't believe I got an offer at long last! And Reading is only half an hour's drive away from Oxford :tongue: :cool:

Yeh the deadlines for applications are a biatch!
I'm from the UK but have been livin in Malaysia for past 3 yrs coz my dad got posted here. I'm applying to the US because over summer i did an American academic program in Oxford and all the american kids kinda brainwashed me haha. But i know my chances are TEENY and so i'm not banking on my US choices... The UK will do just fine :smile: I take it ur from NY state then? I have some friends there... in Long Island X

Well done Eyore too!! Lol yea that points system is reeeally confusing.

University: Royal Holloway
Course: Q300
Grades Required: ABB, A in English
Reaction: Excited, but not as excited as I was when I got my offer from York
Course name and code: Q300 English
University: Royal Holloway
Offer details: ABB, A in English Literature, excl. General Studies
Reaction: Excellent, because depending on what becomes of other offers/rejections, it may well be my Insurance - I'd say it's 4th-ish in my preference, but I really quite like the place, so pretty darn pleased (like last night :biggrin:) - This is all lifted from the General University discussion forum, still childishly excited by it all :tongue:
