Cambridge applicants for 2013 entry III: Return of the King('s college)

Hi everyone,

I applied to read Natural Sciences (Physical) at Churchill College. I'm from Malaysia and I have yet to receive anything (not an email or a physical copy of the letter) from the college. I think my college started sending out letters on the 3rd, so I'm hoping it will reach within 3-4 days. I sent an email in to ask for a scanned copy of my letter but the admissions staff said that they're currently busy supporting the applications in the Pool and said that if I still haven't received the letter by the end of next week, they will send me a scanned copy. Does this in anyway imply that I have gotten a rejection? Any advice will be well appreciated!

Has anyone else had the Occupational Health letter from Caius without a decision letter? Not sure if it's a massive mix up or if I have actually gotten an offer... The stress continues, yay.

I've got absolutely nothing from them yet. I'd say send they an email to find out whats happened but i'm beginning to doubt that anyone will answer.

No letter today, but I e-mailed them and the auto-reply email says:

"Unsuccessful and offer letters were sent to UK, EU and international applicants via first class post on the morning of Thursday 3rd January"

They've not said anything about pooling letters... Doest this mean that we have all been pooled

Finally a fellow churchill natsci applicant! I'm in the same situation and I've gotten the same email, hoping for the letter by post sometime soon

I rang and she said she'd try and email me the decision letter. By tomorrow. At least I'll finally get closure!

You just beat me to it! (See my post below yours). I have no idea but every other college sends letters out to pooled applicants.

Just want to see what everyone else thinks about this. The auto-response from Caius says that "Unsuccessful and offer letters were sent to UK, EU and international applicants via first class post on the morning of Thursday 3rd January". Does that mean that people who have been pooled won't get a letter? Could explain why I've heard nothing.

Apparently there is no first class international post service offered by the Royal Mail. All international posts take 5-7 days to deliver.

Gah and Malaysia is so far away from the UK! Hopefully the wait is worth it and we all get favourable replies in the form of offers!

When they say "By tomorrow," does that they will send out e-mails today, because i've got school tomorrow, and i need to find out before school because people will be asking

Just called the admissions office for the college I applied to, and she told me that by hook or by crook, all colleges would either call or e-mail applicants if they are offered a place.
