I have firmed for English lit and drama but im so scared i wont get in :frown:

Also, how likely is it that you'll have to go to the 3rd choice of your housing application? I regret picking burdhart at all :frown:
I should have gone with all Fallowfield ones. But i really wanted an en suite! Is there any way you can change it?


75-80% of applicants get one of their three choices; those are the only stats I have I'm afraid.

You can change your choices by emailing [email protected]

Can anyone say how far away the train station is from the main campus?


Piccadilly (the mainline train station that most people use, depending on where they're going) is about 5 minutes walk from north campus and 20 minutes from main campus

Nah, so long as you apply by August 31st you're guaranteed a place, but the earlier you apply the more likely you are to get a place, so it's best to get on with it :smile:

Mee! Hello there course mate :biggrin:

Indeed, they do both come under the BA(Econ). However, they are on different pathways within the BA(Econ). When I started BA(Econ), they wouldn't let you switch between pathways. However, it's been radically restructured since then, to the extent that my course no longer exists, so things may (or may not) have changed, but I would strongly suggest that it's worthwhile choosing the right course first time around.

Random, but I was wondering how you found the course? Are you still doing it or have you graduated?

Mines ABB which I'm pretty happy about still stressful though I need an A in biology spending way too much time on that
Mine is triple A and I am freaking out because I don't know if I'll get it for chemistry!
I'm a final year, so nearly graduated! I've been pretty happy with the course - there's so much choice that it's always easy to avoid the bits I don't like (IPE :hand:). The teaching has been decent too. However, the course has changed a lot since I started, and it wouldn't be possible to take a BA(Econ) Politics pathway, so don't base all of your opinions on what I'm saying about structure!
