It was a cool city yeah, the first thing I noticed was how completely different two adjacent streets could look haha

Congratulations to all offer holders - especially Fitz people! I am a current 1st Year Lawyer at Fitz and am happy to answer any College-related questions you may have, I remember being unsure about a lot when I got my offer. Enjoy today guys!

What course and college?!


MML @ Robinson!! What course are you?
Up there with the worst days of my life :frown: The only person out of three to be rejected from Oxbridge, and I was the only one with straight As at AS level so I must have done terribly in the interview. Pooled by Girton and then rejected, feels awful - let so many people down! Utterly embarrassed to be honest, to Durham/York law I go!

What's it like getting from Fitz to the Sidgewick site? Is the location of Fitz that much of a problem? I've heard its actually not too bad getting into Town, especially if you're on a bike.

The whole 'Fitz being out of town' thing is a bit misleading - perhaps by Cambridge standards we are a bit further away, but you have to remember that is compared to the central colleges. At almost any other University our location would be considered very much central.

To Sidgwick its roughly 10-15 minutes walking quite leisurely; on the bike it can be as little as 4-5 if you are really going for it. Into town, it is perhaps a 6-10 minute walk or really quite short cycle, perhaps 2-3 minutes as it is downhill.

Fitz is great for music lovers.
They have very active music-related clubs and societies and lovely modern auditorium ....... if your daughter is willing to even more time on music on top of her course assignments! :tongue:
Congratulations for your daughter. :smile:


Vincrows, many thanks for the info and for your kind words. Also for your support to all the applicants on here. Is very much appreciated.
I'm an international student that applied for law at Downing. I still haven't received an email, is this normal?? Pleas respond I'm stressing out.

Sorry to hear. :frown: I hope you get better, and you enjoy whichever uni you go to.

OMG I forgot Hamilton is going to be going to the West End. I am so jealous Omg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Perfect in both ways :smile: I am probably going to see Lala Land in the weekend to get over my rejection :tongue:


Aw man I am so hyped, but apparently the cheap tickets are gonna be like £85 and I need to travel down from Newcastle and probably stay with family or fork out even more for a hotel. Why do the good things in life evade me so?

Hey that's as good a way as any! Just remember, the uni you go to doesn't stop you being successful, it just aids in a process you already started- that's what I'll be telling myself if I'm rejected. 😊
