How flexible would you expect cass business schools conditional offers to be in 2007

zvp1989

Hi, I have recieved a conditional offer from cass for there business studies degree.

There conditional offer was an AAB

TO BE HONEST I THINK I WILL GET AN ABBa (a in a-s sociology)
A IN BUSINESS B IN ECONOMICS B IN MEDIA STUDIES A IN AS SOCIOLOGY.
Do you think that will be enough for cass to accept me
will my a in AS compensate or would it count for nothing

it will be helpful to hear from current cass students who got in and what grades they were allowed in with relative to there conditional offers.

Also i mean without having to go through clearing just a straight aceptance what the you guys think from your experience or people you know of. :confused:

I would say its quite likely with AAB plus you have your AS grades.

Competitive enough for it to be in Extra AND clearing? This means they are unable to fill their spaces. It isn't as competitive as you think, just because the requirement is AAA... ActSci has entered clearing for past few years. Unless they fill these spaces, they're going to lose money (they have quotas to meet, with government subsidy etc). So I believe them to be quite lenient; in fact, I know a few people who have asked if they'd be accepted with AAB on results day, and CASS said it'd be fine.

Also, I cannot confirm this, but apparently someone was let in with BBC. I think they might have been international (high tuition fees), but I'd imagine that wouldn't really matter.

Yes, of course. If it's in Extra, then it's likely to be in clearing; even they said so when I phoned.

Did they say they'll accept you?

Well, I'm still awaiting my remark... I asked if they'd accept ABBB (which I currently have), they said it's possible, but they'd have to see my application first...
