Ask an Admissions Tutor applying age 21+

Hi, how are decisions being organised? Are they being released on a subject to subject basis?

Does anyone know when the decisions for law will be released?

If you find out, please post back here and let us know. I believe Admissions did say decisions would be released by the end of this week, but I suppose it doesn't hurt to double check

Hi all,

There have been some delays around running the pool for the March round. We now hope to announce decisions on 4th May.

Dear Admissions,

Does this mean that all the March Round decisions will be updated on 4th May on UCAS? Thank you.

Should be but it may take a day or so to update. You may hear from teh college before UCAS.

Hi, how will we hear back before UCAS? Email?

Hello,

I am an Economics student that will turn 22 this summer and wishes to apply to Cambridge. This is more of a personal question, but due to COVID and bad mental health, my 1st-year 1st semester grades have not been that great.
I made sure that after that semester to seek help and have been scoring overall a strong 2:1 since and I am expecting to graduate with a 1st.
Will my bad marks jeopardize my chances of studying at Cambridge?
Is there a way I can prove that the grades have been low due to my health? (I am currently on the Student Disability Inclusive Support List at my uni)

Hi, thanks for posting!

If you believe your grades have been impacted by circumstances outside of your control, I would encourage you to arrange for an Extenuating Circumstances Form to be submitted alongside your application.

Hi, if I've sent my results in and met the conditions, when should I expect my offer to be confirmed?

You should typically expect to hear from your college in a few days.
