Has it ever happened that a college wrongly told someone their application was unsuccessful and later contacted them clearing the mistake? :biggrin:


Something a little more complicated happened last year.
A candidate was rejected by the college without being pooled but his UMS was high enough to qualify for auto-pooling. He contacted the college to ask why, and they found they made an error. He got an offer in the end.

Hey, haven't been around for today? Are there any tech difficulties at Caius explaining why I have no answer yet (international student). :frown:

The brightest boy in the school got rejected for Natsci from Churchill lol not much hope in there for me


At this point I guess you could phone them maybe?

Firstly, check your spam/junk folders. Secondly, if you still haven't heard by noon GMT tomorrow then I think it's fair for you (as an international) to call.

hahaha I see now. Rejection yesterday? Sorry to hear :frown: What's the plan now?


Thanks. Plan's to wait for other offers to come in, see if I like those unis enough and then consider further.

Im not relying on this shred of a chance though and neither should you xD


Nah, me neither. I saw that my course was ranked higher than Oxford or Cambridge in the Sunday Times Good University Guide for 2016, which has raised my mood a lot (along with binge/stress-eating). xD

Got pooled and then rejected for Land Econ. A bit disappointed, but looking forward to going to Bath.


Sorry to hear. :frown: But I once went to Bath (the city, not the uni), and it's a nice place. (As a Classicist, I went to see, well, the Roman baths, along with some visiting family.)

Hope you feel fully OK soon!
Hi,
I applied to Girton, and still haven't heard anything via letter or by email, any ideas on what to do, shall I wait until tomorrow to make any enquiries? I'm in the UK for reference.

when would be an appropriate time to contact the college about a non urgent matter? next week? Never did call them about the whole fee status mishap.

Considering it's almost half past five there and it helped for Pembroke, I'd call them to find out whether they're having issues too (then you can join :wink:)

EDIT: jneill said not to so idk
I got an offer for Chemical Engineering via engineering

Just to be clear if you're fished for reinterview and don't get a place, your admissions hopes are finished? No open offers no more reinterviews no more pools nothing?

@Murray Edwards Admissions @jneill @vincrows


Yes. (I'm sure you asked this before :wink: )

Well, hold on. Maybe the open offer thing... (a very long shot)
