Official University of Glasgow 2021 applicant thread

Hey, I’m playing on applying for Scots law at Glasgow however how much do national 5’s play a part. My national 5’s went terribly however I did make up for it with my highers. I have 5 A’s at higher and doing AH modern studies, English and higher environmental science, french

Hi all I am quite clueless on the application process for Glasgow! I applied for law a week ago, does anyone know how long they normally take to give out offers? Obviously they have to wait until LNAT results are released but do they normally wait until January?

I sent my UCAS off today! I’m applying for maths with AAB predictions. I’ve never visited glasgow because of corona and i live in South London but i love the course + the city seems really great!

hi!!!

i'm going to be applying for aeronautical engineering and i'm currently doing physics, chemistry, math, english and modern studies at higher. i'm actually an international student studying in a scottish high school right now and i'm very excited to start uni!! i'll only be 16 (turning 17 in like a month tho) just because of how late my birthday is in the year and also because i'm going to uni a year early anywayssss...anyone else applying for aero engineering??

Also from South London! A bit stressed about never visiting haha

Yess very stressed atm - i feel like scotland is another world compared to london aha, also my friends/family think i’m absolutely insane for wanting to move that far away!

Ikr! Everytime I mention Glasgow, the response is, 'Wow, do you know how far away that is???'

Like,,, ma'am, like I haven't been constantly checking the distance. xD I've heard Glasgow is a nice city? Much smaller than London so might be a culture shock... But sounds SO affordable!! (I'm Iz btw)

Exactly! the distance doesn’t matter - i was mainly looking at the course and city. The scottish uni courses seem kinda cool by giving the option to study other subjects. Glasgow seems amazing to live in and as a student city!! I’m izzy

The flexible course thing really confused me at first but it seems such a good idea, so many options! (Considering maybe English or Philosophy?)

Glasgow also sounds really friendly apparently. (I hope there's a bunch of other London/England students so it's not just me lost in Scotland. 😂) Also Izzy but just Iz!
Have you heard back from Glasgow at all? I haven't even got an acknowledgement yet and UCAS got my application on the 8th. Also hoping they get some more scholarships, they had one for Afro-Caribbean students last year but they seem to have dropped it.

Hi! I’m also applying for law (with philosophy) I heard the Scottish unis normally wait until after the Jan deadline to start giving out offers, but don’t quote me on that lol. I’m from England (NW) so I’m pretty clueless also! Can I ask what grades you’re applying with if you don’t mind? I’m applying with predicted A*A*A in history maths and english lit Best of luck!
