Hi! I’m also applying for Graduate entry Vet med. I’ve applied to Bristol and have submitted the SAQ so just waiting to hear back now. What about you? How are your applications going?

I heard from Bristol this afternoon and I'm on hold for the Graduate Entry course, fingers crossed I get offered a place after they've looked at the other applications. I didn't meet the requirements for the 5 year course (missing Chem A level), so unfortunately got rejected for that one. Hopefully you guys will hear back from Bristol soon too 🙂

I’ve also just received an email from Bristol to say that I’ve been put on hold. Hopefully we won’t have to wait too long! Fingers crossed for you.

Hi guys, also a graduate entry candidate here, i applied for bristol, rvc, cambridge and surrey, for which i just got an offer yesterday!

Could you please tell me how long Bristol took between your application being sent off and responding? Also what does on hold mean? Did they explain it in regards to the score you might have got on the saq, or did they link it to existing qualifications? any replies appreciated!

Hi! Congratulations on your offer!!! I sent my SAQ back to them on 13th of October and only heard from them yesterday (15th Nov).

On hold just means they’ve seen/looked at your application but they are going to review more applications before making a decision. Because it’s such an oversubscribed course they want to review most or all applications first so then it’s a fair decision. It’s a neutral thing so it’s not bad news ☺️ it’s just frustrating not knowing 😅also they don’t mention how you scored on the SAQ or how you compare just that you’re on hold and they’ll be in touch when they make a decision

I heard back that I'm now on hold, so still waiting to find out 🙂
I've also applied (undergrad) and I applied to Nottingham, Surrey, Bristol and Liverpool. So far the only uni I've heard back from is Liverpool where I've got an interview. Just wanted to know if anyone's had any correspondence with other unis or anything

Hi! I am also applying to Nottingham, Surrey and Bristol - I received an interview from Surrey but haven’t heard from nottingham and Bristol. Does anybody know when Nottingham gives out interviews, or if they already have?
