hellooo,
i just had my interview for KCL this tuesday and still haven't had any feedback yet. How did you get an offer so quickly?

I had my interview for KCL on Tuesday too, I was in the 10:15 group. Were you in the same group? It's a relief to hear I'm not the only one yet to hear back, I'm really hoping I succeeded! ☺️

When did you send in your application for KCL? I sent my application in on the 24th of Nov. Is that too late?

Has anyone received an interview or offer from the university of Nottingham yet? It's my first choice and I haven't heard a peep from them other than their acknowledgement of receiving my application😕

Hi

Ive applied for Notts as well as four other unis, I've had almost all my interviews and have offers but i'm still waiting for my interview date for Notts.

I only know i've even been shortlisted because there was a clerical error where my application was declined then reinstated because of a computer error. I was emailed to say there had been a error in the system so to ignore UCAS if it said I had been rejected for the time being and that it would be changed back, they said that I had been shortlisted for interview and that dates were to be arranged shortly and I would get a date via email in the near future, that was 2 weeks ago and not heard anything so im thinking they haven't finalised interview dates yet.

Hope this helps xx

Hello! Don't worry at all, your application is certainly not late, as KCL organise their selection days from the beginning of December through to the end of February. The interview I attended on Tuesday was apparently the first one they have held so far this year, so there is still plenty of time :smile:

I applied this time last year but deferred my place. I didn't hear back from them for about 3 weeks when I had my MMI

Well done! I haven't received an update, however, I got an email last night telling me that I had recently been contacted about an update, the deadline for which was in 48 hours?!! Yet when I log onto the portal, which I have many times now, nothing has been updated! I'm very confused.

Got an interview for Canterbury Christchurch tomorrow. Feeling nervous because I failed the maths last at Greenwich by one mark last week and wasn't allowed to be interviewed. They may invite me back for a resit but it's thrown me off because I passed the maths test at Plymouth and got an offer, and I thought that one was harder! So I've had my confidence knocked back a bit. I'd be mortified if I failed another, been revising more this time.

Hi, when you all say you received an offer - do you mean conditional?

I've been offered a conditional offer at Northampton on BCC - I had no idea if I'd passed the interview and am really pleased, and those are the grades they say they want in their prospectus.

I loved Cumbria, it was my first interview and I messed it up. I was expecting a rejection but got another conditional on BBC. The problem is, I won't get BBC. I got CCD in my AS levels, my predicted levels are BCC.

I only applied to Cumbria as in their prospectus they state they want CCC. I applied to universities I liked with low entry requirements.

Can universities just demand any grades - wouldn't it be easier for them to reject me? I have no chance of BBC. I really liked Cumbria. What can I do? I've emailed the university.

So I have an interview at Worcester, Coventry and am waiting to hear from Keele (applied in October for a foundation year, so hope they want to see me!) At least I have a realistic conditional offer at Northampton.

I have interviewed at Keele, Staffs and Wolves and had offers from 2. I've been waiting to hear from Keele since 17th November. What is the longest you have waited after interview? I feel like the uni isn't really bothered about its applicants if it can drag it out this long. I had my offer from Staffs within 4 hours of my interview and to be honest it's making me reconsider. Keele was my first choice but I just felt so welcome at Staffs. I can't respond until Keele get back to me but it's incredibly frustrating.

I attended a selection say at KCL last Tuesday, and was told to expect a 2-3 week wait maximum, whilst they totalled and considered our interview/test scores. However, I know of at least one person from the same group who has already received an offer. We were also their first cohort this year, and were told that decisions may be delayed to give equal fairness to later applicants. However, I certainly understand your exasperation, waiting to hear back when other candidates have already been informed does make the process feel more distressing. Nevertheless, no news can also be interpreted as good news! :smile:
