The mail could have made a stopover, to catch some breath and visit some sights. :tongue:

I'll not hope for a mail till Friday, after which, if both mail and email decisions are not out yet: freak the hell out!

I wrote to them on Thursday, they didn't quite reply, but someone sent me an email saying that she'll forward my email to the tutorial secretary, who will reply to me. Another person in the decision thread posted that they are sending mail to whom required it, starting from Today.

Thanks, I don't have much hope, but still ..
Good Luck to you too :wink:

Ohh I see. I'll try emailing them tomorrow :tongue: But maybe it's just me but I would much rather find out from an actual letter and not an electronic copy of it.. I'm so ready for a rejection though

Hope you get a reply soon, and that it's one to smile about :wink:

I've called the Magdalene Admissions Office. It seems that we need to send an email, requesting if the outcome of the application could be made known through e-mail. However, they do not guarantee that such a request could be fulfilled.

Hey, St John's here too! I applied for Chemical Engineering via Engineering, but I haven't heard anything. Did you request for an email? "Four working days" = torture.

I actually just rang the magdalene admissions office as well. They said the same that sending decisions by email isn't their usual practice but we could email them requesting they do so. However, the lady also mentioned that they would respond only when they find time to because they are currently busy with the winter pool interviews...so I guess here's to another few days of waiting...
