I got it aswell, I wouldn't worry, I think King's would tell you specifically if they needed you to fill it out. I don't have any criminal convictions either :-)


Thank you! This UCAS business has turned me into such a worrier.

Just got a message from Kings asking for an academic reference from an academic email address, only problem is I graduated almost three years ago and my tutor has moved to Switzerland so not sure if I can get in touch with her. Oh and they've only given me seven days to get the refrence, how nice.

Hey, I've got one too and my referee has retired hence he used a private email. I'm going to try and get my uni to email them to confirm his position and will call kings tomorrow - I'd definitely call them tomorrow and see what can be done ☺️

Btw I graduated in 2011 so similar situation!

So it wasn't just me. Still its better than a rejection, I will definitely call them tomorrow and see what they say. Can't expect everyone to keep in contact with their tutors years after you graduate can they?

Exactly what I was thinking - much better than a rejection, though I nearly had a heart attack when I got the email hearing all these other interviews being sent out!

Could you let me know what they say and I'll keep you updated on what response I get by phone also 😊

Will do. Hope this means we were on their interview list but they couldn't send them out because of the references.

I'm sitting here in complete and utter disbelief that I was somehow lucky enough to get TWO interviews today, when I really really wasn't convinced I would get any. I think it's only just properly hitting me now!
Sweet Baby Jesus.

Kings. Wooo
Interview at Kings! A welcome sight as I check my emails on my first night shift as a HCA haha. 745, Band 1
Hello folks. Does anybody know if SGUL are likely to get back to us with just a yes/no to interview in the first instance, or with an actual date? In one of their email communications they said that we could let them know about dates that would be particularly convenient or inconvenient (which I though was very nice of them!). I live overseas so have quite a few timing constraints, but I don't want to start hassling them about my personal circumstances when they haven't even confirmed if I've got an interview yet (though I do meet the cut-offs and entry requirements). But I don't want to leave it too late either, as I'll be on completely the wrong side of the world for at least a week of Feb!
Question for people who've been through this process (or just know generally) - without getting too ahead of myself, if you get an offer, how long do you have to make a decision? Do they put a tight time limit on it? I've got an interview at Soton in a few weeks and I'm reasonably confident I'll get interviews at my two GAMSAT choices as I'm over their cut-offs, but Nottingham interviews, for example, aren't until March.
Ucas will not allow you to accept offers until you have decisions from all your choices. So you have no rush to decide if you get early offers

Thanks! That's really good to know. One less thing to worry about (and I appreciate it would be a nice problem to have...!)

EDIT - it's been a looooong time since since I last went through UCAS...

so if they've started sending out offers, soton and kings etc, would it be safe to assume they've decided a cut off or would they just be offering from kind of the top down in terms of ukcat scores?
Sorry to ask this question again (I'm sure it has been asked many times but scrolling through 187 pages could take a while) does anyone know when the Warwick selection centre is? Does it clash slightly with Newcastle's January dates? (11th-13th Jan)

It says on their website that it will be 6-9th January
