Hello everyone, welcome to the official discussion thread for students who have gotten an offer from Cardiff for 2024 entry! You can chat with other offer holders, and see if you can find someone who could be in your class next year <3! also, let us know what A Levels you are taking and the subject you want to study!!

Hi, I've had an offer for deferred entry to study Archaeology this September and I was wondering if there's an offer holders event for that course? I haven't had an email x

Anyone else applied/in for biomed in sep 2024? i managed to secure a place last year for deferred entry

Has anyone heard from social sciences recently if they have received an offer? I sent my application in mid December

Hi, my friend who applied for social sciences has had her offer back already but they have until April to reply so I'm sure it'll be fine!! good luck

Do you know when she applied? I already have my results so I was hoping it would be quicker

Hi,
does anyone know when International students will start getting decisions? I applied to Human Geography, has anyone gotten offers yet?

Does anyone know when are cardiff offer holder days?

Hi!
I've been offered a place at Cardiff studying LLB law, do you have any recommendations for which accommodation I should apply for? From what I've read Column hall and Abercomway hall are the closest but I'm also considering the flat option of an ensuite. Also, do you know if we will get the chance to look at the accommodation during the holders event? (I'm assuming no since its in the middle of the semester but just wondering)

Hi there! All of the accomodations would have their pros and cons I would say

If you're going for university-owned ensuite accomodation I'd suggest the Talybont complex. It is a bit of a walk, 15-20mins-ish (depending which Taly block you choose). But it's right next to the sports facilities, has a common room, and really close to amenities such as Aldi, Tesco and KFC/McDonalds. I stayed at Talybont North first year and I found it really convenient that the sports facilities were just right outside my window!

But I know people that have enjoyed staying at closer accommodation despite sharing bathrooms, so it really depends on your needs, I would say.

Hmm to the holders day question, I believe accommodation visits are mostly offered on Open Days. If it doesn't state on the email you received about open day, it most likely won't be offered. But I recommend looking at YouTube room tours of the halls you're interested in. I've found them to be quite accurate since its just students doing them for fun.

Hope that's helped, let me know if you had any other questions 🙂

Thank you so much your answer really helped! I just looked into Talybond accommodations and the court looks great definitely going to consider applying to it.
