Hi,

I applied to Churchill for NatSci(Physical) and I haven't heard from my college at all. I even tried calling them from Malaysia (twice), but no one picked up the phone. I think it's lunch time now...


I applied for NatSci (Physical) as well, but to St Catz. I requested an emailed letter on the 3rd - didn't get it. asked for another one today at around 8 am (GMT) - didn't get it. haven't received the post either. maybe they're just too busy and we should be patient for the post to arrive. i don't know, i'm tired. I'm from India, by the way.

It's just a massive form - it says something about "Following a conditional/firm offer of a place to study medicine at the University of Cambridge..."


I would guess that means that you got an offer then... but equally it could also be a mistake. Maybe ask any of the successful medics if they got it?

really? which city? were you there at Delhi for the interview?

I sure hope so. Can't wait much longer. Friends have got their decisions by email (one from Caius and one from Emma)
Anyone got an offer from Robinson? Or more specifically, Robinson Geography? Losing more hope with each passing minute, especially after knowing that colleges are already calling up people to offer them places.

has anyone heard from St Catz yet? (email)


Nope, despite sending an e-mail to them opting for notification via e-mail last Friday.

I called up Catz's admissions officer and she said she'll send out copies of our decision letters to everyone who requested for it. She said it'll be done by today. But this is only for Catz btw.

Is it really true that if we don't hear from our colleges by today, it means we have been rejected? :s-smilie:

I think that's a bull theory. I'm completely sure a university like Cambridge wouldn't discriminate between successful and unsuccessful applicants. Besides, there seems to be no such pattern. A friend of mine got rejected from Caius on the 3rd while so many haven't yet heard from them (some even in London). Another friend of mine got in at approx. the same time.

btw, when did you call them up?! THANKS A TON !! so that means we should be receiving our decisions via email today right?

Hi Alexandra we are both in exactly the same spot: applicant to St Catz to study law, from Asia (I'm from Singapore) and without a decision letter.I just drank some alcohol so that I can sleep early tonight, and therefore spare myself from this torture.

sorry to interrupt, but i do think they perhaps discriminate between successful and unsuccessful applicants. I emailed Lucy Cavendish on 4th, then received an auto-reply saying "Lucy Cavendish offer candidates with an address outside of the UK or EU will receive a copy of their offer letter and enclosures by email on Monday, 7th January.":s-smilie:

Oh God, if its true then its sick....Well, i sure hope its a college-specific practice not common to all colleges. I was told I'd get an email on the 4th, but i think there was some delay.

nope. I was the only guy without a tie, the one sitting opposite to you. i remember now, you said you liked chemistry or biology or something, didn't you? I remember the guys from Bangalore and Calcutta as well.
