How long after getting the email about 'your allocated college will contact you shortly' did you have to wait? :smile:
(only got the offer yesterday but already impatient!) :smile:


It should show up under your useful links on AES before you get the letter so less waiting hopefully XD.

Which college did you apply to?

Ah wow! I can't swear to being normal in the broader sense of the term, although I know what you mean in this case :wink:
Thank you! :smile:


Oh yeah, forgot to say this yesterday but CONGRATZ on the offer! Is it likely to be your firm?

University - not expecting to get in but IT'S A CASTLE!!! (and has orchestra + choir!) But I spent today looking through all the websites and I honestly think I'll be happy pretty much anywhere! :smile:

Ah Cool so hopefully soon :biggrin:
University ^ see above :wink:
I have an offer from Hild Bede :biggrin:
It'll probably be my firm too, so quite excited. A*AA, but I have the maths A* from last year so should be alright (I hope) :biggrin:
Well done to everyone who has offers from Durham (y)

Ah awesome! Well it would be quite a miracle for anyone to get into Castle at this stage!
I applied to St Aidan's because I had no idea which one to go for and turns out it's the reject college that no one applies to! oh well :P. But I'm insanely excited to (hopefully) be going there in October!

Congrats :biggrin:
Mine took about a week.. Which college did you apply to?
Hi guys! I'm not an official applicant yet but hopefully will be transferring to Durham this September. I think I like St Mary's College <3
Someone help? - UCAS says most unis aim to reply by 31st of March. I still haven't heard from Durham and am starting to get worried as desperately need to sort summer plans (long story). Does Durham reply by 31st of March? I applied for Arch and Anth in September and still haven't heard anything!
Rejected :frown: C'est la vie!

I guess they take a while for arch; that's what I applied to as well.

That's still over a month ahead though. In other words you have quite a while before you need to worry about them forgetting about you :wink:
Hey guys,

I just found out I got into Trevelyan college, which I'm really excited about. I was just wondering one thing. Do any of you guys know how easy it is and how long it takes to get from the normal campus to the Queen's campus in stockton? Because I was hoping to try-out for and join the first basketball team, and I know they train in the sports centre in Stockton.

Is it going to be a real hassle for me to travel back and forth to trainings and things? I notice on google earth stockton seems pretty far away.

Thanks guys :smile:

You might want to post this on the Durham "Ask a Current Student" thread.
Rejection from Durham for geology. Pretty depressing considering they make offers to about 80% of applicants :emo: Oh well. They weren't my first choice anyways.
