Wow, so I'm not the only UHI person here. I'm starting a MLitt in Viking Studies at Orkney in January, though it will mainly be by distance.

Anyone studying at UHI should encourage TSR to add a sub-forum for the University. Send PMs, kick up a fuss. it's you being disadvantaged because your peers are coming to this site, seeing there's no sub-forum and quite possibly leaving without ever actually posting.

I am thinking of starting at uni next year. Do you guys recommend it?

Ps: definitely need a sub forum!

Can anybody on here tell me how long UHI usually takes to send out confirmation letters? My course is starting in January and I have no written proof yet that I've been accepted, so that does start to worry me a bit.

Hi Anndee

Have you been told you have a conditional/unconditional? I originally got through an unconditional quite quickly after applying, but because I was applying using a hnc opposed to highers, that seems to have held things up. I haven't had much contact or a specific start date either, I also start in january

Andee,

Yes, I am in the MLitt program as well, starting in January. Well, as soon as my official, final NARIC equivalency gets back to the program director. I spoke to the director of the Center for Nordic Studies there, and I look forward to getting started.

I am doing most of mine remote, as I live in the States.

My course starts in January. Not received anything so far! Not even been given a start date. Hope UHI are not going to be this disorganised for the whole course....

Start date is the 26th of January. I already got my conditional offer and everything else squared away. I just completed my online registration, and now I am awaiting approval by my tutor.
I do not think that they are disorganized. I have had numerous questions and likewise have sent numerous emails. All of my emails were answered. I hope to see you in one of the video conferences. I am assuming that you have been accepted into the program.
