Hey! I thought I would start a thread for applicants who have firmed Cumbria uni Lancaster campus for sep 2013 start! Ive firmed Cumbria and I am studying Adult Nursing!:smile:


Hi! I have also confirmed Cumbria as my first choice for Primary Education with QTS. I've applied to Waddell and just trying to get a feel for things. What has everyone heard about the university? I keep hearing bad reviews but when I went on open days (twice) I love the place!

I've only read good reviews and one bad one... I think you can't base your opinion on others if you love the place from ehat you have seen then that's good enough I love it too from what I saw on my open day and can't wait to go :smile:

I loved it too!
I put Cumbria down as my very last choice when I was applying, and never thought I would really end up going.
And then once I had my interview, I loved it and ended up choosing Cumbria over Hull :smile: I'm kicking myself thought because everywhere else I applied to, I applied for Primary Teaching and Cumbria was the only place I applied for Early Years! Would have been completely perfect doing Primary Teaching at Cumbria :smile:

I put it down as my last choice to Jessica I really wanted to go to sheffield but then decided it was to far away! My sister went to Cumbria so I knew it was really nice! And then when i went to the open day I loved it! I don't see what all the bad reviews are about we will all come out with the same degree as everyone else so I'm really excited about going!x

Orientation day for Primary Education is the 5th July for anyone wondering :smile: don't worry I haven't had a letter I rang up and asked. Does anyone know what date term starts in September? I'm eager to know when we can move in and get everything started :smile:

I did a medical science BTEC and have a D* in it as I finished it a couple of months a go and I do psychology and media studies! My first exams next Wednesday too! I'm so so scared about not getting the grades!x
I know! I can't wait for freshers!
Oh god I know! I do a BTEC National Diploma in Children's Care Learning and Development, and we've just finished all our teaching like last week! and I've got like a couple of assignments to finish then I'm done! SO weird, don't know what I'll do with all the free time!
My course start date says 1st September on UCAS? Hahah I'll just be homeless for two weeks!
Awww I'm sure you'll both be fine with exams! We've all got this far, so we're more than capable! :smile: Good luck with them all! x

My start date says 1st September too! But last year term didn't start until the 17th so I think we will be okay. I finish my exams on 14th June. I really can't wait. Good luck to anyone is sitting exams!
I've firm accepted a Primary Education with QTS, and been offered Mill Hall accommodation which was my first choice! Just had my first exam this afternoon (English Lit), don't think it went too badly!
