No, it just means that the University hasnt made a decision about whether or not to make you an offer.
You cant actually read anything else into it than that.

Putting an application on hold means that we have assessed the application and decided that the applicant meets the entry requirements for our offer, but we are unable to make a final decision.

That’s the official statement from their website that sent in a link I got in an email from the after my email. So surely it means they’ve assessed my interview and given me the all clear - yes I know it isn’t a guaranteed offer as others could do better than me in the interview but it does give me some hope I did well in the interview. Stop crushing my dreams lol I’m kidding

I think that they said that they would reply within 3 weeks. They haven’t made any decisions yet hence pretty much everyone has been put on hold. No one has offers .org rejections yet (Original post by Tasnim2608)Ignore where I said after email I meant after my interview *sigh*

You may be right but the thing is, I know someone who haven’t even been put on hold and has the interview when I did. So I’d like to thinks it’s because they’ve already reviewed my interview and I met the criteria and they haven’t gone through the others.

It might be, but I know like 5 people who have applied to the same course and all of them have been on hold. Just seems like a coincidence. Also two of my friends that applied for medicine/dentistry 5 years have also been put on hold.

You're very lucky, congrats! I had an interview on the 29th as well and have heard nothing but radio silence and judging by how sub par the interview was for me, I think a rejection is imminent which is a shame but there is nothing I can do about it now. I did a lot of prep but I must say none of it prepared me for how those stations went. Best of luck to everyone though, I met some great people on the day :smile:

Christ has everyone and their mum been put on hold? The people there did say the majority of people would get put on hold so I wouldn't think too much in to it, you're right. However being put on hold is at least a step above a rejection. :smile:

Exactly that’s what I’m trying to say, don’t stress about it
