Boo. I still haven't heard anything. It's been weeks and weeks and every Monday I hope that it will be the week

Maybe this week will be the week...


Well if they're going to reply by the 31st, next week pretty much is the only option. I'm in the same boat as you so I feel your pain.
Here's hoping it's sooner rather than later, and that it's good news too. That's not too much to ask for, right?! :biggrin:

As genuinely happy I am for everyone that's received offers, I must admit I am just a teeny tiny jealous of you, because you're not waiting anymore! :tongue: I on the other hand am half losing my mind because it is March 26th and I still haven't heard from St Andrews. I can't speak for others, but everyone out there that are still waiting (if you exist) wouldn't you say that you're sick of thinking "maybe I'll get an answer tomorrow?" :biggrin:

(Sorry for this absolutely pointless post, just needed to feel that I wasn't alone in my torment!)

You are not alone! At least we know that THIS will be THE WEEK(which in fact I've been telling myself since the beginning of March :biggrin: ). oh god. I am sick of waiting, but I could easily wait until August for a response, only if it were a positive one :biggrin:

You know, I couldn't agree with you more. If I get a positive answer, then all the waiting will be worth it. If I get rejected...well then, I'll try the American chick-flick way of dealing with things and eat tons of ice cream! :tongue:

Only five days left!

My phone notifies me whenever I get an email. But I've become so paranoid that I convince myself that my phone is broken, and that I MUST have something in my email.
St. Andrews WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME?!

Unconditional today!!! Have you heard back yet? St Andrews don't seem to do it in subject order... GOOD LUCK!!! :biggrin::biggrin:


Hi,

Congratulations, that's great!

Still haven't heard back unfortunately... I emailed them and their reply stated that my application is still being reviewed but that I'll definitely hear by the 31st! How slowly time is moving though...

Do you mind me asking how you did at AS? Because an unconditional offer would be my absolute dream! St Andrews is definitely my first choice!

Congratulations!!!!!
Well you couldn't choose two more polar opposite places!!!

"Unfortunately you were in competition with applicants who were stronger academically. Our asking rates are high, but every year the proportion of applicants already holding, or predicted to obtain grades higher than our asking rates increases. As a result this means some highly qualified candidates have not been offered admission to the University as we simply do not have enough places."

Oh well. I wish you hadn't kept me waiting, St. Andrews!

Nooooo! :cry2:


Don't you worry about me! I'm going to go firm York now. I'm not too sad because I got an offer from a school I wanted to go to.
St. Andrews doesn't know what it's missing out on with us two :wink:
