Durham Likely Letter...WHAT?!

I'm an American applicant to Durham Uni.

I just received an email from Durham university wishing me a happy thanksgiving, and they said "We look forward to seeing you in Durham soon."

Does this mean I'm going to get an offer? I know American schools send these things called "likely letters", but I wasn't aware UK unis did this.

I wouldn't get your hopes up until you get an offer.

They're normal standard replies they send.

Did you get one too?

This is the only Uni which I'm waiting to hear from they are taking ages to decided I've only had a email to say they received my application.

The admissions tutors do sometimes send email communications out directly. I received a personal email in November last year saying I had been processed and would here soon. I received my offer on the 8th of December.

Seems a long time ago the first term finished today

Ahh ok thank you! Will put my mind at rest a little haha

When serving on the selection panel for the graduate scheme I always sought a greater level of constructive input than you have managed to bring to the table; I trust you were not pushing your envelope too hard.....

That said I do empathise. I feel the same about individuals who score less than 90% in their summative osteology exam.

Wow, can't spell and no sense of humour. It's also hard to see how you would be in a position of authority at Durham considering you've just finished your first term there.
