Just wondering - has anybody else not heard anything from their college after firming? I did so a month ago and haven't had any contact...NatSci at Queens' if there are any in the same position

Not heard from Girton since firming either, What are you expecting at this stage.

When are they going to send us information on accommodation?

I have an offer to study medicine at Girton, what course have you got an offer for?

Hi pr100! Mine's Law at Robinson. Do you know when they'll tell us about accommodation?

Thanks guys!! I think I'm gonna stick to my studies. I really want to get the grades so I guess I can hold off getting a part time job
Anyone by any chance doing Education or got an offer form Homerton??

Good luck with exams, results, uni etc.. Hope you're all in Cambridge this time next year

Education with English and Drama at Johns what are you combining it with?

When can we apply for NSP and cambridge bursary because on their website it still says 2012/13?

What I'm about to say will probably seem pretty stupid, but I'm going to say it anyway. I've got an offer for engineering which naturally everyone thinks you will accept. But I feel like going to Cambridge would be far too demanding for me. I want to enjoy Uni but I feel that if I achieve my offer, which granted will be challenging, the next 4 years of my life will involve me always feeling under pressure and having to work constantly to keep up. Then on the flip-side I think about my employment opportunities after Cambridge. I would be able to move into other industries, such as finance, with relative ease which few other Unis could provide.

I've only got one more month to decide, but right now I have no clue. Anyone else in the same boat as me?

I think that at the minute the best thing to do would be to take the offer, and see how it goes. If you do find that the workload is too heavy, then you can transfer to a less demanding Engineering course at another good university. However, if you decline the Cambridge offer at this stage the reverse isn't going to be plausible, so I think it would be best to try first so you don't regret it later.
