Aw, that's a real shame, but what makes you think you'll get rejected from Aberdeen too? Don't put yourself down, you can't know for sure until they've told you so yourself! Even if you do get rejected, consider the thought that it's not that you're not right for the course, the course isn't right for you!

I heard back from Edinburgh and St Andrews pretty early and got two big slat rejections, but only heard back from Dundee the other day with an unconditional, so timing doesn't mean anything at all! Keep your hopes up chick :smile:

Still waiting for St Andrews!
Timing does not mean anything. Although I hear back from Durham a roughly one month ago with an unconditional. Time is the key!

No problem, you heard anything yet? No I'm firming my place at Aberdeen tonight actually, I just needed to hear back from Dundee so I could accept my offer :smile:

Hey,

I'm still waiting for Newcastle for Mech Engineering. I really want to go there as well :frown:
Seriously stressing now. Its the beginning of april on Monday and I have had no response from any of the unis I have applied to. Does that mean imminent rejection?

Nope, the unis actually still have until like the 9th of May to give out responses so it's still possible to get replies. I know I'm still waiting on one reply from Heriot-Watt university, because I need to reply to my Oxford offer soon. The waiting is horrible, but don't worry too much. The reason you are waiting so long has either got to do with the fact that those unis are slow, or that you are a middle-choice student -> so not excellent but also not extremely bad. It takes much longer for unis to choose from these students.

Isn't that when we're meant to reply by? After the 9th of May I thought UCAS declines your offers (DBD) if you don't reply to them...

Not necessarily. There's summat on UCAS about how if you can receive offer later it's a different deadline date. Why don't you try phoning admissions?

Ah sorry. Just took another peek at it, 6th of June is the deadline if any offers arrived between 31/Mar and 9/May - I'm planning on phoning Warwick tomorrow because this wait is really winding me up!

I've applied as a mature student, but a late application and it's only been a week and driving me up the wall!! The deadline for me is the 18th July!!! I'll go crazy if I have to wait that long :-s

Well the more time I spend on here the more I keep finding out abput this whole application process. I'm non UK so this is all a bit confusing for me, but this one particular question has recently popped into my mind:
I've noticed that you can only reply to your offers on Track if you have received decisions from all your choices and that there's lots of people who would like to firm their offers but can't do so because they haven't heard back from other unis (some withdrew their applications from places they didn't want to go to anyway, but for some it's too risky which is understandable).
So I'm wondering if it's possible that these people might be 'blocking' places/offers at unis they are definitely going to decline and that other applicants have to wait for them to decline in order to get an offer? (which they can't do if they're still waiting for decisions from other unis... DOOM LOOP??!)
