Did you apply for other courses than econ straight just so that it would be less competitive?

to be honest im not sure that i was thinking. i just wanted a nice mix and would have been happy with any of them. i didnt realise just how few places were offered for my nottingham and birmingham courses which is quite scary

It could be anytime from now to normally end of march (absolute end date is may 6th I think?) Some people have heard from them already, for example I've heard from them for Business Econ approx. 2 weeks ago and got an unconditional(practically); a friend of mine who applied for Econ was rejected at the same time. Lots of others are still waiting and as far as I know this is quite common for Durham. So be patient and try not to worry much, I wish you luck with getting offer :smile:
