[2018] Fastest and Slowest Offer Senders

lawmanqq1999

Just remembered this thread from when I was applying last year, and how helpful it was!

With UCAS Applications starting up again, offers are soon to follow, some quickly and some slowly...

Feel free to put down your offers and other uni stuff, and to just generally have a chat :u:

Best of luck to all applying this year! Exciting times!!

CA Request/Notice: If you're posting in here with a offer please could you also post in the list thread so we have a full list of offers to help other people.

Thank you!! This is my 3rd year applying to uni. Had 3 offers last year, but I've decided to work this year and save some money, so I've reapplied all over again. Hoping I do as well this year.

Oh I'm different, I got the one I wanted (Southampton) but didn't want to do nursing any more. So I'm going back to my love, biology.
