don't worry they don't always respond quickly but by the sounds of it you have a really strong application so you should be fine!

Thank you!!!! I really hope so!

I applied on the 18th September and got an offer on the 15th October so actually it took around a month

What makes you like York so much? :smile:

Hi there! Just want to ask is there any chance for me to get Exeter History and Politics offer?
My AS grade: ABBB
Predicted grade: A*AAA
I am wondering if they are going to give AAA or AAB :/

I know somebody with an offer who got ABCC at AS and predicted A*AA, can't remember the offer though.
It depends entirely on your school, have your other unis given you the lower contextualised offer? If so, Exeter probably will too

Well done!!! I guess it was the atmosphere when I went there the city centre was lovely and the university campus itself was amazing! Also as a little side bonus my best friend has just been given a reduced offer there for philosophy so yeah! But overall Oxford is the dream!

I haven't been to York, will probably visit on the offer open day. If I don't get an offer from Oxford or LSE, York willl be my firm. How did you find the HAT?

I've got an offer for history & politics at exeter (what campus did you apply for?!)
& I got AABB last year and A*A*AA predictions so our grades are really similar, they gave me an offer of ABB so I'm sure you'll get a similar offer! good luck :smile:
anyone heard from southampton or exeter?
I sent my UCAS off yesterday, but so far I've had an offer of AAA from Manchester, and one from Keele which is unconditional if I firm it, and ABB otherwise. Just waiting on Birmingham, Sheffield and York now!
