Applied for History and English probably around the 24th of November..had no reply yet, kinda worried as it's one of my last I'm waiting to hear back from! I have an A2 A* and got AAC in my other AS subjects. Anyone else heard back for the same subjects? Sorry if you've already said, I didn't want to plow through pages and pages!

Nope. And I haven't heard of anyone's AES change to a college yet for maths either :frown:


Earlier today my AES changed to:

Your application has been received by a College
A decision has not yet been made. Please visit the UCAS website for further details

I've applied for G103 (Mmath)

I applied to Chads too! I havent actually visited the colleges (like, been inside or anthing) but I loved the Chads JCR website, and I like that its small and cosy :smile:
Thats so weird that we applied to the same! Maybe we'll see each other there (fingers crossed for a Chads offer for us both)


haha *high five!* I went to visit it back in June/July sometime, it really is small and cosy :smile: hopefully we'll both get in there! My AES has changed now so that it says "A decision has been made, please check UCAS for further details." I just wanna know nowww, I can't wait for a letter to come in the post! My post is all crazy anyway because of the snow :frown:
Anywho, make sure you tell me when you get any confirmation! :biggrin: :biggrin:

Thanks, nice one on the HE Diploma. Yes Durham will be my first choice I think, for one reason or another I've yet to send application off yet :rolleyes: but that'll be done within next few days so hopefully will see you there :biggrin: What college are you at?


Fingers crossed for you :biggrin: I chose Trevelyan but I won't find out whether I've been allocated a place with them for a few weeks. Have you chosen one yet?
Anybody got any Classics offers yet??

Unsuccessful for International Relations.

Curiously, I thought I was going to take it much worse. I'm oddly relieved.
Good luck all. :biggrin:


Sorry to hear that. I got rejected for Politics so same thing really..I had one evening of being heartbroken and then just sort of got over it. Nothing we can do. Maybe see you at York!
Offer for Bsc Geography - AAA :biggrin: Nothing from college as yet.
