Rejected from chosen college or from the university?

Hi,

So I wanted to ask a question about Cambridge's application process. When you apply you are asked to select a college but I was wondering where it goes from there. If you don't get a place at that college are you being rejected from that college or from the university? Is there a chance of being placed in another college or is it the fact that since you applied there and don't get in you can't come to Cambridge anymore?

The official website is your best friend. Plenty of information there.
But don't try to over-analyse their statistical data on application.... and never even think of trying to play a statistic game to increase your chance. Never works. :wink:
