I applied early October and I have still not heard back yet. I don't think we will be waiting long for decisions as the deadline for UCAS applications was not long ago.

Glad I finally found a chat on this. I applied early November and haven't heard anything. St Andrews is the last to reply.

For anyone worried about this, it doesn't actually matter. You can change your mind almost up until the end of 4th year when they ask you whether you want to graduate or not.
I applied for Mathematics and Computer Science in October. The status of my application is still pending decision. I only have one offer so far (Imperial College). It is kind of weird cause I thought getting in to StA would be a lot easier.

I know a fair few who were rejected by St A but got Cambridge/Oxford offers.

Okay, well I can still hope. I'll probably firm Imperial anyway. Has anyone heard of any EU applicants receiving offers from St A up to now?

Na i don't know any EU folks applying. I like that i can change to the masters later in my degree. Not making my mind up now is awesome.

It depends but I don't see why not if you have the requisite grades / knowledge.
