is it easy to switch between courses once your in the university (within reason and certain time period)? I've heard that Stirling is quite flexible.

I'm applying for Social Work! :hello:


Hi, I'm from Northern Ireland and have also applied for Social work at Stirling. Have you heard anything from them? I've had to scan my qualifications to them and log on to the portal but it says 20% and awaiting decision. That was a few weeks ago!!

Sorry I'm not sure as I did a straight nursing degree and didn't have to make module choices so can't advise. Maybe someone else here will know or you could contact the uni to find out.
Thank you very much, were you able to do the other modules that you wanted to do? Im just wondering if theres a lot of competition for everything!
I'll be getting mine in early so i will probly be fine :smile: Thanks for ur help!

Congrats! :biggrin: I only got the acknowledgment of my application from Stirling today so I may have a lil while to wait for a reply. :yep: When did you send your application?
I haven't really decided if it's my first choice yet but I love the campus!

Also not sure how long they take a break for at Christmas and new year? Wouldnt expect to hear anything till January now probably. :redface:

Thanks 😊.

Sent my application off three weeks ago, however if took my referee a while to finish my reference. 😂

Yeah, the campus does look really good.

What have you applied to study?😁

I've applied to Aberdeen, Strathclyde, Stirling and Glasgow. Only heard from Stirling, it's my preferred choice since I live close by and can't afford to live in halls.

Same, took a week or so for my referee to send it. :redface: How long did it take to get an offer after the referee sent it?

It's a real campus university, feels safer than places like Glasgow because it has very good security although I do like Glasgow too. :smile:

I applied to history! :biggrin: Universities applied to are- Stirling, St Andrews, Edinburgh and then Aberdeen and Glasgow.

Stirling is fairly close to home so I know I'd be happy there! Although not close enough that I could commute. :smile: But it should be fine, I'd like to learn how to cook and stuff so I think I'd prefer living in halls.
