If anyone else here is a Corpus applicant, don't get confused by the fact most colleges send letters to everyone and some don't send emails to UK applicants.

Here is what Corpus Christi's website says:
"All decisions will be communicated by email, to ensure that applicants receive the news as quickly as possible. In the vast majority of cases, the decision email will be sent on Thursday 12 January 2017. Successful applicants will also receive a letter, though this may arrive later than 12 January depending on the post. Unsuccessful applicants will only receive an email."

@Corpus Admissions please confirm :smile:

If it's on the college website it's probably true ^^

Frustrated
Tomorrow I have no lessons no exam
so I'm going to stay at home,
Sleep at the dawn, wake up at the sunset
If I woke up I'm going to check my email
with my left eye
If It was a rejection I'm going to close my eye
Without my right eye,
I can pretend the thing cannot be justified
And I'll take the pill, swallow the despair
Till my reincarnation starts again.

I woke up, having had a dream that I'd got in, and i was convinced I had got in and that it was friday morning, and then I looked at my phone and realised it wasn't.

Oh no!

I'm convinced I'm not going to get in anyway.

I've managed 5 hours in the last 2 nights :frown:

I pre-warned my teachers for tomorrow that they just need to handle me with care tomorrow. Plus, after the free lesson i have (where i'm planning on going home to get the letter) I have a supervised study period and the study room is closed, so i'm going to try and have a nap.

Good luck everyone (for tomorrow)!
I hope you all receive the news you want to hear and if you don't, remember that you are more than likely to get in elsewhere as you are all very intelligent people.

I know that even if I get rejected tomorrow, the Cambridge interview really boosted my confidence for my following interview and was potentially the prep I needed to get that offer. I have enjoyed and gained so much from this process as I am sure others have too.

(I don't know why I'm posting this, I was just having some deep thoughts lmao)

With the traffic between where I live and Southampton it could easily take 13 hours to get home :wink:

. But seriously I'm sure I'll be fine, I'm just a bit shocked because I assumed someone else would be going
