Warwick Politics Offer Holders 2017

I got an offer for Politics+International Studies at Warwick too but I can't decide between Durham and Warwick. Warwick is in a horrendous location (Coventry isn't a nice city and Leamington Spa is rather small) and is just a bunch of concrete really, but the course is better than the course at Durham.

A Levels: History, Geography and Government and Politics
What offers do I have so far? Exeter, Lancaster, York and Warwick (waiting on Durham)
Is Warwick your firm choice? YES

hey! I've got an offer at Warwick for Politics (AAA) :h:

I can't decide between Exeter and Warwick :frown:

I'm also undecided between the two, I'm going to both offer holder days then I'll decide! Warwick is like 20/30mins ish from Birmingham on the train and 40 in the car! I really loved the campus when I went :h:

the location is not so much of a big deal as when you get bored just go to the nice big city nearby haha

I also have an offer from Exeter I do love it but I live in the north so it's a good 8 hour drive :s-smilie:

I went on the open day and I decided NEVER EVER roots it was horrible:s I know I need an en suite so that narrowed it down I really like Sherbourne, Arthur vick or jack Martin(AV is first choice for me) the course at Exeter is fantastic it's more environment which I like :u:

what about you? What accomomdation are you thinking

Congrats to everyone with offers! Sent UCAS off on the 24th November and got an offer from Warwick on the 28th for PAIS & Hispanic Studies. Offer: AAB, Predicted: AAA, AS grades: AA, studying History, Spanish & Politics at A Level. Got an offer from Kings and waiting on Exeter, Southampton & LSE. Really torn between Kings/Warwick/Exeter loved them all. Leaning towards Jack Martin and Sherbourne for accommodation. I'd go for Bluebell but six grand a year is a bit mental ngl!

Hi!

I'm waiting on Kings and Warwick- also got my Exeter offer, and if I do get the other two, I will also be torn between the three! Lol

Well done on your offers :biggrin:

Thanks, you too and good luck for King's and Warwick! Roughly how long did Exeter take to get back to you? And ikr they are all so good, I think I'm leaning slightly towards Kings but I think a campus uni a bit further away from where I live in Kent would be pretty cool too.

I sent my UCAS application off on the 14th Nov, and they got back to me on 30th Nov, lol
How long did Kings and Warwick take for you? And are you applying for Politics and International Relations or just Politics itself?
Also, Kings is probably my last choice out of the three tbh, since I'm from London and want a lil independence- but I love London to bits! :s-smilie:

My UCAS application was a mess, Applied to PAIS with Spanish at Warwick, Politics with Spanish at Exeter & European Politics (lol) at Kings. I sent UCAS off on 24th Nov, Warwick got back to me 28th and Kings 29th. Yeah I get what you mean, I'm only just outside the M25 so London does feel a bit close but I love it too. I guess I'll decide after all the offer holder days.

I got my offer about a week ago and I applied in early October. I do Politics, Philosophy, History+ Extended Project Qualification. I don't know what my predicted grades are but I got AAAB at AS level. However one of my friends got AAC in his first year and he got an offer for PPE at Warwick
