The big thread of questions about Track status

No, track can sometimes be slower than UCAS. If it's on UCAS track - you're in! Well done :biggrin:

I sent of my application early December - and I still haven't gotten anything from Durham. Should I be worried? I'm climbing on the walls here, I can't even log in to Durham Track!

Don't panic. With the Christmas back-log and the application deadline your track details are probably waiting to be sent to you. Wait until mid-February and if you still have had no letter, maybe ring them. To be honest the Durham track is more trouble than it's worth! Good luck :biggrin:

Thanks Reblet - I'm gonna calm down, get some tea and patiently wait for my letter. :biggrin:

Mmm tea.

I sent mine in October.. still nothing, and it is not joint offers.
No news is good news at the moment though I guess :smile:

And I thought I no longer had to check UCAS because Durham track updated first, and UCL interview before an offer... now I sill have to check UCAS as sometimes it updates earlier lol

No...it just means they haven't made a decision (I think).

This isn't a question, just a general annoyance at Durham. I'm sure it must be the slowest university anywhere ever!

Is there anyone who received an offer from another university after their Durham one? Durham just has to keep us waiting...

Yep. Many places keep people hanging on for ages. I think York did that to me last year...
Look around and a few people have "pending" in their signature from lots of other unis besides Durham. Poor Durham doesn't half get some stick. Just because it gets so many applications... I'd hate to be in charge of admissions... imagine all the e-mails...

I think Durham gets so much hassle because it seems to be top choice for a lot of people applying there. I can't handle the pressure!

The admissions people have secretaries that do lots of the stuff for them.

Like sending the same replies over and over again to applicants... I wonder if they have template e-mails...
