Well done! I am veryy envious!

I hope you don't think me annoying (and will understand why I am so nervous after waiting so long!) but can I ask you when you sent your application off and what grades and such you have/ been predicted?

Will it be your firm?

oH and what was the offer, like AAA or AAB?


Unfortunately AAA :huff: I think they only give out AAB offers before Jan to people they really want, although I don't actually know.
I sent my application off in October, and I'm not actually sure what I've been predicted, I think it's about A*AAA though.
Good luck! :h:

I will also be applying to UNITE house :biggrin: apparently it's only 10 minutes away from the main university precinct too, it's my favourite out of all the ones I've looked at :smile: Do you know whether we would have a chance to look around before applying or not? I suppose it wouldn't be too bad if not as there are plenty pics on the website and from what I've heard about UNITE housing in other cities it's pretty decent...


Im not sure..my open days on wednesday so il ask, but ive driven past it and it looks nice! what are you applying for?

Oh lovely, I've only been to Bristol once so I've never seen it! I'm so eager for them to send me an invitation to a post-offer open day...nothing yet! I've applied for Spanish and German :smile: How about you? Is Bristol definitely going to be your first choice?

Hi there, I'm a Singaporean heading to Bristol (Law) this year, via deferred entry, and I'm interested to know (for those who've received offers) where you guys are from!

And, are you all on an AAA/AAB offer? Bristol took me in based on an ABB. Trying to convince my folks that this is an opportunity I can't afford to pass up.

Can't do that sorry, there will be an "official" one soon (if there isn't any yet).
Last year there were WAY too many, and ppl got confused :smile:
Got an offer from Bristol for law :biggrin: AAA condition.
Reaction involved lots of screaming and crying from myself and the parents. Waiting on Warwick but I'm almost certain Bristol will be my firm! So happy!

Oh cool :smile: What grades do you need? Really? It sounds even better by the minute :tongue: I realised today that I also quite like Goldney Hall, so that's another option though I think Unite will be my first choice :biggrin: I'm soooo excited!

Well done on getting an interview! I'm optimistically thinking that it takes longer for Joint Honours applications to be processed as it has to go through both departments. And I'm worried about a phone call... it could turn into a rejection, haha! Where else have you applied to?
Good luck with your interview and everything else :smile:


Thanks for that.. have you heard anything yet?.. Have offers for Queen Mary's and Surrey and did interview at Exeter - but still not heard one way or another yet.. final interview is UEA in March... What about you?

Hello! I am on a 'shortlist' for G100!

Anyone else here on the shortlist? Any idea of what kind of numbers per place this will have been reduced to?

I really would have preferred a straight decision, rather than this update. Now If I get in I will feel a little inadequate compared to the others, and if I don't, my hopes have already been raised a little for that much more of a greater fall :tongue:




Hey, i'm on the short-list too. I got a letter in December, but haven't heard anything since. They said they would let me know after the dead-line. x

Great job! Are you from the UK? I'm wondering how esteemed Bristol Law is in England, or anywhere else. Back home (Singapore) it's regarded relatively well.
