Hi there,
I was just wondering if there was anyone else who had applied for the Sustainable Development course?
I was rejected, and have decided to pursue my career somewhere else, but I would be interested in knowing what the typical offer people received was.
Thanks, and good luck to you all,
KK

Well that seems to suggest that Edinburgh were quite lazy when it came to my application... I got an Unconditional into the same course at St Andrews with peoples offers either AAAB or AAA (England). So my New Zealand exam results must be equivalent to that. And if you can get an offer at ABBC, then that means I would probably have legitimate grounds to appeal...
But I would rather go somewhere I am wanted, so have accepted to St Andrew's for September
good luck with your exams, hope it all goes well!

What would your preference for course/uni be between St Andrews/Edinburgh? Or are you planning on going somewhere else?

I don't know exactly yet..at first I was dead set on Edinburgh, but the more I look at at the course the better I think St Andrews is compared to Edinburgh. Right now i'm leaning towards St Andrews but I guess I'll see at the open day Did you apply to any other unis?

I was the same as you, Edinburgh was always number 1. But now I'm so glad I'm off to St Andrews, I really think it is the better of the two SD courses. I applied to Stirling as a back up option, got an Unconditional, but glad I didn't need it! I'm visiting St A on the 10th April

It does seem to be better established and with more options to choose from! I quess I'll wait to see what happens with Edinburgh. Oh okay, I'm going on the 17th April

Congratulations on your offer. The quality of the programme is very impressive and I'm sure will lead to future opportunities and opened doors.

The student union and facilities they provide are also really good here, can't really speak for what it's like in St. Andrews but that's my experience. Again, it depends what kind of place you're looking to live in, it's probably best if you visit both places and unis to form your own opinion! It's hard for to find any cons as I love it here so much.. Good luck with your decision
