Anyone applying for English Language/English Language and Linguistics for 2015?

Is anyone thinking about applying for English Language/English Language and Linguistics for 2015? Where are you thinking of applying? I'd love to know!

Hey, just giving this thread a little bump in the hopes someone will see it and reply

Have you found University Connect yet? It's super useful for finding other people on your course/at your university!

Hey, I will be applying for either english language and linguistics or linguistics in 2015. I was going to apply for pure english language but discovered that a very limited number of universities offer it.
But now I'm super confused because apparently some linguistics degrees are actually like english language and linguistics degrees but they are called linguistics instead??
Anyway at the moment the two universities I will definitely be applying for are queen Mary's london and kings college london for English language and linguistics BA.
What about you?

Hey! I'm applying for linguistics at Edinburgh and UCL, English language and linguistics at KCL and Linguistics with Spanish at York hopefully all goes well!

I want to apply to York as well! I want to do English Language and Linguistics. It's quite hard to get in, but I guess you've got to aim high :P But I've been to the university for an open evening and it's honestly so nice! There's swans on the campus and everything haha

Hi, sorry to divert but just a quick question... when are you guys submitting your ucas applications? I was encouraged to do so before the half term holidays. Also is it true that the earlier you apply, the more likely you are to be accepted?

I've applied for English Language and Communication and English Language and Linguistics

Hiya! I'm stressing about this to! Apparently the sooner you submit everything the better chance you have, but the deadline isn't until jan 15th, so I won't be worrying don't rush if your not finished!

i realise i'm probably a bit late to the party but hopefully not too late.

i'm applying for english language and linguistics 2015, i've been to loads of open days which could be helpful i guess so i'll summarise them. ignore the terrible spelling and punctuation, i am legitimately an english lit student, i'm just lazy and have a broken netbook.

So, i have done open days at:
Leeds (applying)
Mancs Met (not applying)
Newcastle (applying but for english language as they don't do dual honours)
Sheffield (applying)
York (not applying)
Huddersfield (applying as security)
University of the West of England (applying as security)

I'm worried about my PS though because I haven't done English Language A Level which is quite rare in applicants apparently so I feel a bit disadvantaged! I'm predicted AAB in EngLit, History and German (and a B in General Studies but that only counts for my security choices!)

Good choices! Yeah, it's all a bit confusing :P but I'd love to go to York to do English Language and Linguistics and also Newcastle is one of my choices.

Oh cool! Where did you apply?
