I am, matter-of-factly. Reason why I am here, to connect with more applicants and exchange views and concerns, and get answers to queries too when and if that arise. I'm from Nigeria and I have applied to about six schools. How about you, Jemil?

I backed out of applying for Warwick because of the Application fee required. I was at the declaration stage of my application. "Many schools don't require any processing fee, so why Warwick," I had thought.

Thank you, Mjemil

Which field(s) of interest have you applied for and I hope you do not mind sharing the schools. I'm hoping this will help us understand those who we are really in the same shoes together in the application. Mine is Keele, Aberdeen, MMU andEdinburgh Napier.

Regards

I applied for application fee waiver and it was granted

They said a waiver is only given if you have applied for more than one course. Could you take me through the process you used?

Good one there. I have made my CSC application for Aberdeen and I am trying to get an unconditional offer with Heriot-Watt. These are the two common universities we both have applied to.

I wish you good luck

Hello everyone!

I have a question- what does it mean for there to be no deadline for the references? Also, can one of the 3 references be professional?

Hello Arian,
There being no deadline for references means that your references can be added anytime even after the CSC application deadline is closed. As regards to whether one of the 3 references can be professional, I don't think they were really specific on that, however i think that if you have been in employment for sometime, then you should ideally have a professional reference.

Hey guys, has anyone heard anything from Leeds? I submitted my application but I haven't gotten an unconditional offer yet because I was delayed with sending in a few documents. Do you think I could still be considered if I haven't gotten an offer yet?
