The Official 2017 Cambridge Applicants Thread [part 3]

Original post by SteamboatMickey

Honestly Dr Spencer you have been so fantastic! Thanks for giving us so much support throughout the application process, and taking the time out of your day to see to our queries and concerns.

It's a pleasure to help, plus tonight it's taken my mind off how terrible Liverpool have been against Southampton in the football! :smile:

Newnham email (I got one around 9.45 ish) so you might get the email before the letter, depending on how early post is distributed where you live :smile:

Hi all,

Best of luck tomorrow. Anybody successful last year able to give rough estimation of what time we will be notified? Also, does St.Catz email offers too (email they sent previously suggests they send letters for offers only)?

Thanks

Good luck for tomorrow! Applied for maths at Catz so I got the same email but I'm pretty sure it meant we get an email AND a letter with an offer, and just an email for a rejection. If we get pooled I think we just get something from the college giving us an offer but don't quote me on that :biggrin:

Does Newnham emails UK applicants?

So Liverpool's demise has one positive effect then. :biggrin:

Normally my dad would hate me interrupting football, but he paused the game to help me with maths...it must've been really bad :tongue:

OMG so true! Once at Nat Schools, our race was canceled because of the wind (We traveled all the way there and stayed the night before just to do nothing) and the thing is that my crew had beaten eveyone who was racing there anyway >.<

I'm guessing you were part of the Henley crews that thrashed everybody :tongue:

Apparently NWSC was going to be a runway originally but it was decided to be too windy for that... So they made it a rowing course :confused:

You do know where I mean! Small world, eh?

Haha, yeah the rowing world is quite small! It's going to be weird going to Cambridge if I get in because there'll be so many more rowers :eek:

Sorry I'm not sure I understand :/ I got an email like a month ago saying that we'd get letters posted today and an email sent tomorrow but I've got no idea when it'll be sent tomorrow, hopefully morning though if we're lucky!
