I'm waiting on St Andrews as well and have the same dilemma with the fees..... I think if I didn't take that into account, I would choose Durham... but it is such a massive point to consider. I'm going to go visit both unis hopefully in March and then decide! Are you leaning more towards one rather than the other? :smile:


Same as you! Without taking the fees into account, definately Durham. If I get an offer from St Andrews or Edinburgh, I'll have to think about it. I might visit in March as well, but leaning more towards Durham at the moment☺️

I was really tempted to take Classics but I couldn't give up English literature. I hope you hear soon


whereas I couldn't give up the art/history and philosophy so Classics was the best course to keep everything in :''")

the art part of classics is amazing. If I can always try to get some part of it my art projects
Starting to think Durham and Edinburgh hate foreign language applicants... :,)
Be hopeful. Me and a close friend of mine are "foreign language applicants" and got offers from Durham. Be patient and hopeful.

Doing my best, but besides yourself, I've yet to see another person with a foreign language studies offer! I'm going for Chinese - mind if I ask what you were offered? :smile:
Sorry that I misread your post (I read your post on a small iPhone 4 screen). I applied for law instead of a foreign language. But, remains hopeful. Not getting rejected up to now is a good sign. I send you my sincere blessing here from Hong Kong.

Ah I wondered if you yourself may have been Chinese, or at least oriental (Leehom is a name I recognise!) and your luck and wishes are greatly appreciated! Nin nian kuai le :smile: Finger's crossed!
I gives you can tell that leehoma literally means "how are you".

Applied 26th November predicted A*AA
Got an offer yesterday for MMath (European Studies)!! A*A (Maths and F. Maths any order) A (Chemistry) B (French). I can't quite work out if A*AA would be acceptable if one of the As was in French. Now I need to see if I can defer for a year cos I've decided to take a gap year (a simple life would be boring, eh?). Does anyone know how likely they are to allow me to do that because I really want to do this course!?
