Durham History Offers??

Has anyone heard anything from Durham about History yet? I applied in early October and my application is still languishing at the department...

I haven't heard from them either. Which college did you apply to? I applied to Collingwood. Good luck!

I've got an offer to study History with Politics which was processed very quickly (I applied in October too) but I don't know if that's because I am post A-level.

I'm going to Van Mildert btw.

Nope, no offer as of yet for straight History, although a lot of people have Hist/Pol coz i think it goes to the History dept after the Politics dept has ok'd it and they have to rush it through maybe?

I am not sure to be honest- from all of the Durham information I've had there has been no mention of the Politics dept- it all just says "Lead Dept: History".

Two friends-of-a-friend have offers to do straight history at Trev & Collingwood with AAA offers. Unfortunately, said friend has just been rejected by Collingwood for English. :frown:

I applied to Hilde and Bede, and I'm post A level :frown:

It was for Ancient, Medieval and Modern History, not straight History but either way they're being very slow about letting us know

Has your reply got past the dept?

Nope, it's still languishing at the dept; how about yours? I'm having a great time on my gap year - am off to New Zealand in a week, then will get a job and look forward to starting uni in October!

I haven't been there either, but it's accomodation is supposed to be great (lots of en-suite rooms etc). Lucky you, mate! Maybe I'll see you there if I get an offer!
