My university is bullying me!

Once you've been given an offer on ucas it can't be taken back unless you lied on your application. So just keep waiting for your other decisions to come through....although you might get crappy accomadation the longer you leave it if it's first come first served.

It apparently can. I remember seeing KirstinX's case a few days ago where the offer had been changed once it had been made on UCAS.

Why would it change anyway? Results day isn't until August...

No no no, I took my biology in January! That means that in May (now) the universities will learn my results and I will get my replies from the universities.

Yeah, I just thought about that possibilty, hence why I deleted my post

Well, not bullying, but I recieved an email from Manchester saying 'I just wanted to remind you that you haven't replied to our unconditional offer and as I recall from our email correspondence, you were quite pleased about the offer' etc etc. How should I reply? I do want to go to Manchester but my parents want me to wait and see what other offers I get first. I thought of replying:

Don't worry, my deadline is June 5th, my parents want me to wait until all the universities I've applied to give me their final answers on track (ie unconditional or rejected) just to see what they say. If I replied now, then my other offers would remain as 'conditional' (most of my other offers depend on A level biology) and I would never find out their replies if I declined them. I should hear from them sometime this month and I will therefore be replying nearer to the end of May than the beginning.

This is the truth, but what do you guys think? Does it sound weird? I guess it is a bit weird. I'm worried Manchester will withdraw their offer now...My mum says that if I reply to Manchester now then it will be to save face (because I will never know whether or not I got rejected from my other uni's) I want to show her this isn't true by waiting for a few more replies but I think it's putting my Manchester place in jeopardy. I would talk to my parents about it but I'm not on speaking terms with them at the moment! Any advice would be appreciated!

They are just trying to get you on board. I know that you are just checking your ego, but if you love Manchester then choose it. You are keeping places open at other unis that other students could fill.

Its not weird, universities use that kind of guilt trink all the time, but this one sounds more personal than usual

I'm not checking my ego, bastardo. My parents are checking their ego, I want to accept Manchester right now but I know they'll be hell to pay if I do. Did you even read my posts in this thread? I said that my mum thinks I'm trying to save face by accepting Manchester before I know my other replies (I didn't get the right grade in biology and I reckon I'll probably be rejected from all of the others) really, I know she'd never let it go. You don't know what she's like...

Also, when I said 'does it sound weird' I was talking about my proposed reply to the email (read it) because I know that it is weird for me to wait this long before replying and my reason for waiting is weird. And another thing, you criticise me for keeping places at other unis open when I don't need to but it's the unis' fault because if they'd just hurry up and reject me then their places would be free again.

Oh so youve got an automated email, stop panicing and dont send that email off, it would look so friggin stupid. Manchester should not withdraw your offer, you have a deadline. Also dont the universities have a deadline to make an offer to you?
