St Andrews Hopefuls 2017

Scroll to see replies

So I applied for History on the 18th of October and I've got offers from Durham and Edinburgh but I've heard nothing from St. Andrews. I'm an international student and I was wondering if this is normal?? I know that they said they would get back by the 3rd week of November but I'm guessing that that's not the case anymore as none of my friends have heard back either. I'm just assuming that it'll be after January that I'll hear- are any other international students in the same boat?

Any RUK (England/Wales/Northern Ireland) applicants receive an offer for Physics yet?

International here that applied October 31. Still pending decision, but its because information was missing. You may want to email and see if that is the case for you. If you're sure your application is complete, then just be patient (I know...easier said than done!). Wishing the best for you!

On the American forum for St Andrews applicants, they said that there was a larger international applicant pool this year so that it's no longer guaranteed you hear back by the 3rd week of November.

You're more likely to hear back in January supposedly :smile:

I called today and they said they're planning to send out a bulk of offers tomorrow (I think at about lunchtime for eastcoast US students) and if it's not there then January! :smile: Wishing the best for you too!!

I didn't even know there was an American forum!! Yeah that's pretty much what they said when I called them, except they're sending a bunch out tomorrow. But after that it's January!!
