Scroll to see replies
Hello! I received an offer from Bath for their three year Bsc on Friday (the 27th) at around 5pm UK time. I know many of you are waiting on them, good luck! I had been waiting since the 10th of October, so I definitely feel your pain.
Finally got all 5 of my offers! From Ucl, bath, bristol, sussex and nottingham. wasn't expecting to get an offer from Ucl so now have no clue whether to choose bristol or Ucl 😬 anyone know anything about the Ucl applicant days?

Congratulations! You're so brilliant! UCL is the last one I'm waiting for... How do you consider it compared to Bristol??

I've received a conditional offer from Exeter, Cardiff and York - still waiting for a response from Edinburgh - applied for MA and BSc because Edinburgh is obv where I want to go to.. starting to doubt whether I want to do psychology or not now though.. 
what am I meant to do?! is it too late to change degree (to English Literature...which is in itself a hard subject to get into if you apply ON TIME!!) help!!

Don't worry I have felt this way about whether I'm choosing the right course or not- you are not alone!

I've never studied psychology before, not that this is a problem - I'm certain that I will enjoy the course and everything within it... but I know that my passion for English literature is far greater (maybe because I have actual experience of the subject?!) I just want to be happy at uni and choose the right course for me, at the moment English seems to be just that, and psychology not so much..
Has anybody applied for psychology and counselling at teesside
?
?

what am I meant to do?! is it too late to change degree (to English Literature...which is in itself a hard subject to get into if you apply ON TIME!!) help!!I actually wanted to major on both English Literature and Psychology but I ended up applying for Psychology only. I'll probably chose English Literature as one of my electives. I'm sure you can apply using UCAS extras or clearing and if that doesn't work I think you'll have an option of changing your major once you enroll into a particular college considering that they have vacancies for the course. Since you haven't really don't psychology I suggest you go read up a bit about it because that may help. Good luck
I got an offer from my insurance, Queen Mary's, over a week ago and I still haven't heard anything from them about an applicant day. I booked my Surrey one a day after receiving my offer and the same for Royal Holloway. Has anyone got an offer and been told about any applicant/offer holder days? Thanks

Okay I don't know if this was just a one off, but I got an email about an applicant day the day before I got an offer. And also, they are tight on their invitation in that they will allocate you a specific day rather than allowing you to choose which can be a hassle for some.
Nevertheless I would not recommend going to the Queen Mary applicant day for Psychology at all as it was heavily Biological/ Chemical Sciences focused. They only mentioned Psychology once when talking about some research about the though process of fish
Also the professors began talking about how they obtained their degree from Bristol etc. LOL so yeahIt would only be worth your while if you haven't been to the open day and want to look at the campus and accommodation, or ask current students about the course. I left half way through the campus tour after they started showing us the cemetery in the campus
In fact the actual lectures/talks that they offered for Psychology has put me off the Uni entirely 
Finally heard from Bath!! Jesus that was a long 5-ish months!! I have an interview on 19th. So that is an acceptance from Portsmouth, rejection from Cardiff and Holloway and an interview at Bath and Cambridge.

I guess because psychology is part of 'biological and chemical sciences' at Queen Mary they don't focus the day on the subjects.. Thanks though, may just skip the talk and head straight for the accommodation and campus tour ngl the cemetery isn't exactly selling me on the place.. What are your firm/insurance choices?Original post by Joshh_C

Bristol is my firm but I don't really have an insurance in mind, since all my choices are asking AAB which kinda sucks
What about you?

At the moment Royal Holloway (AAB) is my firm and Queen Mary as my insurance which is ABB. My only other offer so far is Surrey which is 3 A's so thats not going to happen! Hopefully you won't need an insurance!
