Architecture Applicants for 2012 entry (& Offers - for when they're given!)

I know right. But they to leave certain spaces for non-jupas applications, so it's not as competitive as it would have been if you applied from HK.
I got told that there were about 12 people dropped out from the 1st year already. What a waste.
Oh! I think you walked in front of me at some point. I was wearing a charcoal grey coat and navy trousers. But there were many asian girls.

Oh wow! Didn't expect it to be this early. But they'll not give out offers during christmas and new year time right? So it's either these 3 weeks or next year.

haha I don't think I'd be able to remember who you were oh wells, hope for the best I guess..
When are you heading back to hk?

Anyone heard any news from Edinburgh?

Haha, I'll have to find time to get my hku done when I get back, again as a backup as well (somewhat sounds ridiculous because hku is really hard for non-jupas to get in)
Lol, I didn't socialize too much because of the ongoing statistics going on in my head on how many people there are and the chances of the people I talk to ending up in the same uni.
Not too hard to spot me, there were only 3 asian guys, i was wearing blue pants.

Weber said something about how they would inform me by the end of this year, judging that its already December, I'm guessing it would be mid or late-dec.

I can't remember exactly what the email said but I don't think they said 'maximum' of and I doubt they would really count the words?? I'm presuming it's just so it's not too long or too short... But could you not try and delete 15 words e.g rearranging sentences? and how have you done your 200 words- hand-written, typed and one block of writing, a bit on each page?

received an offer from edinburgh - BBB
got portfolio requests from UCL and Cardiff back in late Oct, rejected by UCL exactly 1 week after it's been sent and heard nothing from Cardiff yet.

Have you received an email telling you that they have received your application? I did after a week submitting my UCAS. I have not received the email asking for portfolio. If you do, please tell me. Thank you!

Who was it that sent you the email? The person who sent me mine said "once we receive your UCAS application at the School of Architecture we will send you an e-mail requesting the portfolio, in that e-mail will be information on the portfolio and a deadline for you to submit the portfolio to the School, the deadline is usually 2-3 weeks from the date we send the e-mail to you."

And yes the email contained everything about the portfolio including deadlines, what to include, how to send, where to send etc...

Has anyone got any offers with similar subject to DT, MATHS, GEOGRAPHY. Would universities put offers out to students with these subject ? i am also doing an extended project which is architecture related

If it's like the Pembroke test, it'll probably be a picture of a building and you have to dicuss a question about it.

I have an offer with art, maths, geography (and further maths AS), kind of similar I suppose! The offer's from Northumbria.

This school is very popular for replying late. I heard the complaints from previous years applicants. We shall keep each other update if anyone has received the letter requesting for portfolio!

but then a lot of unis would prefer art rather than dt.
