I'm mostly not firming Edinburgh anyway but I just want to know if I got in lol. Did you hear back from your other choices?

I will definitely firm Edinburgh, as it is the only uni I've applied for through UCAS. If I don't get an offer, I will go to a university in the Netherlands (I'm Dutch)

Thanks :wink: You too!
Birmingham or UCL, what do you guys think? I'm essentially stuck between them, could really use an opinion. Is UCL really that much better than Bham?

UCL easily - I'd say because of its reputation, and your employability afterwards too!

Well that's true but I found the course structure at UCL quite..umm...field-specific; it must have sth to do with their postgrad study options that are mostly for clinical and developmental. Birmingham, on the other hand, cover as much aspects of modern psychology as possible, including forensic (which is something I would love to do); also they have a MSc undergrad option which is a fourth year of either research or practice.

So...I'm actually leaning very much towards Bham, but I feel a bit uneasy putting a uni such as UCL as my insurance-which is why I mainly want to know how well Bham is regarded in the UK (I'm an EU student) or how good the department really is ...
Received an offer from Bath Bsc just now!!:smile: Finally!!
It took such a long time for them to reply...

Should I firm Nottingham or Manchester? I prefer the city environment of Manchester, but I hear the course is better at Notts. So difficult!


personally, I really like the Nottingham course and I know people there do too. Don't know as much about Manchester, but Notts has a good reputation for Psych... (I applied there too!)

This is exactly how I felt too! I am interested in the course (and also loved the Broadgate Park accommodation too,) but I've always wanted to go to uni in a city environment like Manchester.

Which universities did you apply to, and did you hear back from them? Do you know which one you are going to firm?

I'm really nervous too, queen margret is really where I want to go. My friend got an unconditional from stirling though so idk. I looked at queen Margaret's feed and they said they would hand out offers in February. It's march now.


My friend got an unconditional in December for two courses in January and I'm just worried that I won't get in :/
