Just got an offer from Bristol. :smile: (AA in Mathematics and Economics - I already had an A* in Polish and apparently only need to get these 2).


Is Polish you're native language or is it English? Since I thought Uni's don't accept native languages.

But regardless, congrats on the offer!

Congrats on your offer too! Mine was actually AA in C3 and C4 too, I just read it wrong out of excitement. :tongue:


Congrats on that!

A few Bristol offers here. I feel I should check track too. When did you send off your application?

Thanks buddy. I sent mine off on the same day purplemind did; the 8th of October, which explains why we might have received our offers on the sane day. :smile:

It is my native language, I lived 16 years in Poland before I came here to do my A Levels. :smile: I was really surprised because I was told the same thing - that unis don't accept native languages.

Thank you. :smile:

Take it as a stroke of good luck. They probably let it slide if they love the rest of the application.

That's probably right and I'm happy as it is quite a nice offer. :smile:

Did any other Bristol applicants who haven't got an offer yet receive an email from Bristol saying they're still considering the application?

When did you send your UCAS off? I only got it this morning so they may not be sending them out all at once (especially if you only applied last week)

9th of October. This is the first kind of "we're looking at your application" type email since sending my UCAS off.

I'm getting a little impatient since one friend has an offer for Politics and Economics and another has an unconditional offer for Aeronautical Engineering (both from Bristol), but I guess there's still plenty of time...

Probably just a thing they do after a certain number of days if you don't get an offer I guess...
