Nothing yet for me! I've applied to St. Cuthbert's...Durham are the only uni I haven't heard back from yet. Even Oxford has got back to me with an interview. I'd imagine they'll probably respond to most people after the UCAS deadline, especially for popular courses like English. Good luck :smile:

Which college for Oxford? I have an interview there too for Classics too, at Corpus Christi!

I've heard from Bristol (offer) but I'm still waiting on KCL, Edinburgh and Durham...

St. Hilda's! Down on the 7th-10th - I think most interviews are around that time?

I've got offers, from Birmingham, York and Warwick. Hope they get back to you soon :smile:

Of course, of course :wink:

I need durham to be my insurance so hopefully they don't reject me... Your imperial interview was on the 25th right? So you'll probably hear back before christmas (I'd say within the next two weeks). They took exactly 2 weeks and 5 days for me... The day that I got my offer I was really pissed off at them for taking so long (if you think about it, they really have no reason to take so long after interview... I mean what is there to do?! Most people interviewed get offers... I feel like they just sit there and drink tea or something). And those insane offers... Someone got an A*A*A* offer in chemistry, maths and physics :redface:

I have applied for straight Maths at Durham and I was just wondering when do they usually hand out their offers?

Ah well done, when did you send your application off? But no I haven't yet, sent mine off less than two weeks ago but just wanted a vague idea of how long it'll be because I haven't heard anyone mention that they've received an offer yet

Anytime between your UCAS submission and the deadline really. I think that the majority get handed out in the christmas holidays :smile:

Can I just ask what is Durham like in your opinion?
I am slightly apprehensive as I have heard that, excluding the castle, the place is not that great?

Nope not English, Geography. I did Maths Economics Latin Geography. And uh Cicero killed me. Horrendously boring tbh and my teacher for Ovid (I think???) was literally bonkers. Not making excuses cause I got an A but yeah dodgy subject last year and yet I am still doing it this year #logic.
