Yes I am because I'm still deciding if I'm actually going to go to Durham, Bristol is looking quite appealing at the moment

me too! I'm torn between UCL and Durham, hopefully the visit will help me make up my mind

Hi all,

Is there anyone who still hasn't heard which college they have been allocated? My daughter got an offer from Durham back in October or November, but hasn't heard anything about her college. She applied to St Mary's, if that's relevant.

Thanks.

If you look on https://www.dur.ac.uk/postofferinvite then you can see which college she has been allocated if you go through to start booking an open day (all the information that you'll need to get through should be on the email from Durham for the offer itself). As she has an offer, she will have been allocated a college but the email from the college probably hasn't come through yet- mine came yesterday evening but I still know some people who haven't received email confirmation yet.

Thanks Jessnox - we did have a look at that yesterday though and couldn't see anything on the booking form about her college. Is the info on the first page or somewhere else?

If you go on as to book a post offer open day in march and input your details then on the third page (about what sort of visit you want) there will be the three options for visits whilst you are there (residential etc) and next to it should be the college that has been allocated

I originally applied to St Chad's and then on Mon received an email from Butler saying I had been allocated there! Was v. unhappy because I wanted a pretty, old college (not one that I'm older than!)... just received an email out of the blue from St Chad's saying it was a mistake!!!

Not at all! They are still haven't finished making standard offers, and so allocations are bound to take a little longer.

My daughter also received offer back in October and still hasn't received her email either. I used the form method to find out that she'd been allocated to St. John's. She'd applied to st. Chads. It sounds as if some colleges might not have emailed yet.
