How long does Manchester Met take to reply to offers?

Hello!

I have received 4/5 offers from my university choices but Manchester Met still hasn’t replied to me, I applied a month ago. How long do they take to reply in everyone’s experiences?

Thank you! 😄x

Ring them up and ask. A month isn't very long - and for some courses they might have been waiting until after the january deadline to start making decisions.

I'm in exactly the same position as you! I've had 4/5 offers so far but MMU is my last and I applied 05/12/18. I honestly thought that they'd be the first to get back to me as well, aha. I asked on the forum and they told me to email them which I did yesterday.

Thank you for replying so quickly, I might wait until February, and if I don’t receive an offer by then, ring and ask about the length of time it takes.
Thank you

It’s weird because I’ve seen people on here get offers already for MMU, what have you applied for? :smile:

You can ring and ask now - it's something that they should be able to tell you in less than a minute on the phone (and it might be that you've missed an email or letter inviting you to interview or similar).

I know, seems strange that we haven’t because everywhere else has replied, where else have you applied for?

Don’t worry, almost every applicant I speak to on the phone is nervous to some extent. Just have your UCAS PID ready.

Liverpool, Nottingham, Sheffield and De Montfort. MMU was going to be my insurance but now I think I'm going to replace it with Nottingham since their offer seems achievable. I actually only got my other offers at the start of the year, so I was hoping to hear from MMU this week but I still haven't. It's kind of annoying waiting since they're the last one!
