thank you!! :smile: i'll hold out for a letter and then ring them in a few weeks if nothing shows :smile: i was so excited to have an invitation i just accepted without looking into it aha :biggrin:


Just to let you know my letter arrived. I have to say I am impressed with Teesside so far. I loved it and the atmosphere at the Open Day & now I have received this invitation/interview pack.

Very well organised, the pack is very clear on what you need to do and/or bring, what time you should arrive, who can come with you, what you should wear, what the day (yes day!!!!) will consist of and what the actual 1:1 interview may include and what they are looking for.

Plenty of time to prep for it.

Nervous... :eek:

I also got an offer, without an interview from UCLAN from one of the courses I applied for which has a much lower entry criteria than the course on the UCLAN site suggested. I wonder why that would be? Nice insurance course though.

They finally contacted me and offered me another day!
What days are other people going up on? My interview is the 1st of February. I only just clicked 'accept' on UCAS so hopefully I'll get some more info on what I'll actually be doing soon.

Apart from yourself, they encouraged friends or parents to come along. They gave guidance on dress code and explained what format the interview would be in and what they hoped to gain from it. They didn't actually ask me to bring anything other than my parents TBH :redface:, but I guess if you were doing something arty they may want portfolios etc? I am doing forensic science so nothing to bring really.

It's all in the Guide to Aplicant Interviews, yes. It is worth putting an hour aside and really reading through it. Don't forget it also includes a form that you have to fill in and email back to confirm your attendance. Well - at least my pack did.

Neither, I didn't get a tiny booklet, mine was all A4 paper stapled together in different sections dependent upon what it related to.

I wouldn't worry about it, it must depend which department and course as to what you actually receive!
