I've actually heard back from them, sent an email enquiring about my application status since I hadn't heard back in a while and was a little worried, and they ended up sending me an offer! So maybe try that?

Hi BBeth. Was that for Vet Nursing? I thought that all Vet Nursing applicants had to undergo interview before offer? I chased up by email and all they've said is that my application is with the course manager.

Yeah it was, and honestly so did I, so it kind of threw me but I found someone else who had the same thing happen to them so it must be a thing they’re doing this year. How long ago was it that you sent off the vocational log and all that? I imagine they’ll eventually get back to you though. I had an email saying it was with the course manager after the Christmas holidays, (sent the log over Christmas) and chased that up at the end of Jan since I hadn’t heard anything since and got an offer 4 days later which was almost a month since it was with the course manager so I think you’ll be fine!! Haven’t actually heard anything about Harper’s vet nursing interviews this year now that I think about it. A bit weird. But oh well.

Good luck! Hope you hear back! I haven’t heard any mention of Harper’s VN interviews this year, but I know me and another person got offers without so maybe that’ll be the case for you too?

Hurray - got an offer from Harper Adams for Vet Nursing! I was surprised to see it was on UCAS points and not grades, but that should work well for me as I'm a bit worried about achieving one of my grades.

Probably Harper and Middlesex Leeds, having trouble deciding between the two even though they’re way different. It’s so hard haha. Kind of wish I applied for RVC now but oh well! Good luck with your interview and the rest of your offers.
