I've applied for Optometry. In my application I included a period from 2002-04 and 2004-05 where I attended college and uni respectively. I failed college and dropped out of uni, because of this I left the qualifications achieved section blank, my tutor checked my application and told me to either fill in some qualifications or remove the entries. The college course I took was from so long ago I couldn't find it in UCAS (AVCE business studies) so I decided to totally remove both entries.
My tutor approved the application and it was sent off to ucas, a few days later I got an email from the admissions team at the uni I've applied for, they were asking for further details and asked me to explain the gaps, I explained what I was doing in that time and why I didn't add it to my application and have heard nothing back since then.
I called the Uni up to explain and the admissions tutor said "we're just looking out for people who failed and try to hide this from us", since then I've been worried that they think I tried to lie on my application and am now really anxious as to whether I'll get an offer or not.
Do you think it looks bad? My tutor said don't contact the uni again as I'll look desperate, she advised to just wait for the uni to either make an offer or reject.
Am I right to be worried?
