I got it after I firmed my decision on UCAS.

Hmm...the only letter i've had since firming is the immunisation advice/occy health booklet. I think an email to the admissions office is required :tongue:

are you supposed to sort out accomodation even if brighton is your insurance?

HAAAAAPY BIRTHDAY! :birthday:

Ah, more exam pressure. It always seems to be an extra birthday present :holmes:

What uni/college address did you guys put down on yar student finance form? There also seems to be a section for another address, "if the course is franchised [to another uni]". So is it a good idea to put, say brighton uni address on the first one, and sussex on the second one? Not a last minute question at all :ninja:

Does anyone know how lenient BSMS are towards missed offers?
I'm only worried about biology, F215 did not go well, and I reckon its literally on knife's edge whether I get A or not :s-smilie:

Not lenient at all I'm afraid. :frown:

I'm just as worried that I'll miss my grades, but unfortunately unless you have the right amount of UCAS points (from whatever combination of grades) then I'm pretty sure there's nothing else we can do. It sucks!

Hey! I heard back from bsms quite a while back regarding immunisation an the crb check. I think this was back in may. I sent of all the forms and my crb check was completed within two weeks :smile:

Just filling out the accommodation form right now.
(Also briefly amused myself almost ticking the "All Female Area" preference box :colone:

)

I'm wondering whether I should put in the further information box that I'm vegetarian, and would perhaps like to be grouped with other vegetarians willing to be grouped together (but wouldn't mind if I didn't).

Rationale is that (it would bring massive peace of mind to mum :rolleyes:

), I guess its more hygenic utensils wise, and its easier to share cooking with flatmates, and plus I won't be treated to the smell of frying bacon or fish, etc. every mealtime.

Should I put this down?

Nope.
I spoke to them a while ago, and they say they'll assign everyone accommodation on "selecting out of a hat" at a particular date (didn't specify which, but hinted that it's quite late), and that apparently medics do get their acc. guaranteed in Paddock Fields, though not sure for anywhere else.
Where are you hoping to stay?
