DLL Interview for Foundation Year at University of Sheffield

Hello!
I had my DLL interview back on March 10th for Japanese Studies with a foundation year
You don't get told about your test results even on the interview day. The results you get help the board to make a decision after your initial interview.
As far as the interview goes, a few questions caught me slightly off guard such as "What books do you currently read which will contribute to your current chosen area of study?" but other than that, it was quite pleasant and despite being told to relax and treat it more casually, I was still very nervous. I get to hear back from the 28th of this month about their decision. Everyone was very pleasant to talk to when having the hour long session to ask any questions I might have had and the wellbeing interview was probably not even an interview at all, it felt more like a chat or a friendly consultation

Good luck to you though!

The book question threw me too!! wish i had seen this before my interview today, I was not confident with how it went at all, while it was quite chilled. I feel like i should've done better, just want to know the results now.

Did you get your result?

Yes They rejected me with the claim I didn't have enough work experience but that was the only reason for their rejection. I may try again next year or perhaps find a different path.

I wish you all the luck!

Hey Ebonie, I believe you can make an appeal for the outcome of admissions decision. In the email you recieved confirming your offer, you'll find an attachtment for Complainst & Appeals. There's a form you can fill out and submit within 30 days of recieveing the decision.

What sort of work experience is expected for Japanese Studies?

They just put that I hadn't worked enough hours in a job for them to accept me. So they rejected me for that
