Psychology

I am still waiting for answer for pshychology, applied through UCAS as UK student and have not been able to create account on Kings portal - they say my email address is already registered but it won't let me create an account so assume I just have to reply on UCAS notification - any advice please, is it last day for receiving Psychology offers?
Are you applying for an undergrad? If so try using UCAS to apply or have you tried a different email address? I’m sure you still got time

Applying for undergrad. I am using email address I used to apply... but assume that any answer will come via UCAS anyway even if a bit later?

thanks
1) its not the last day for receiving offers. you still have until the 19th of may!
2) UCAS will still send you the final notification.
3) have you ever done a summer camp at KCL before? my friend had a similar issue back when they first applied where it said that their email was already used for an account, so they used the password they made when they applied to the summer course and it worked.
4) it's a little late now (idk when you applied, but considering there are 5 days left) but you could call or email kings letting them know your portal isn't working. i sent them an email two weeks after UCAS received my application in december because i didn't get any portal info yet and they sent me the stuff a day later.

good luck!

Thanks, Never done a summer camp at KCL, I am just worried I may have missed a request for more info if not on Kings Portal, but am UK student so not sure what else they would ask for? OK tks will email them but think it's looking pretty unhopeful if we are nearing the end of the offer cycle, think they will probably send out rejections from now on. Do we know how many places they have because one top uni had 3000 applicants for 300 places so they only took A*A*A*....crazy

i'm not sure how many places they have left, but i'm hoping you and other psych applicants on the kcl 2022 thread hear good news. if you're a UK student you could also straight up call their admissions services (just google for kcl's admissions dept. contact) so they respond faster. fingers crossed!

and yeah, it's been so competitive for psych this year... i got rejected from UCL despite having 44/45 predicted (IB) which is A*A*A* equivalent. i know grades aren't everything but i felt that my PS was strong too. i'm so thankful king's took me :"]

Congrats on your KCL's offer although sorry about UCL. What are your 3 HLs and your predicted scores for them?
