I didn't get an acknowledgment from Exeter and it's really worrying me.
Help me guys all I do these days is refresh Track continuously

On a serious note, does anyone know what the criteria generally is for an interview from places like Imperial or UCL ? I didn't realise that quite a lot of people got called for interviews considering the websites say "some applicants" get interviewed. Apparently they're somewhat informal compared to Oxbridge.

Dont worry - most of the people I know haven't received acknowledgement (in fact I don't think I've heard of anyone who has this year) but are still being made offers. I'm sure you'll receive an offer in no time!

I haven't heard from Warwick either (also applying for Econ). It's my first choice too so I'm obsessively refreshing track!


I've heard that they've started giving out offers for some courses so I'm slightly worried but I guess Economics is quite popular so we may have to wait a while.

Don't worry! I didn't get any acknowledgement at all from Exeter before my offer! So if you've not heard from them it doesn't necessarily mean anything. :smile:
Anyone else check this thread all the time to see if unis you haven't heard back from, other people have got offers from?😅
I may as well do one of these:
I'm Johnny from Kensington, London :smile:

Not sure yet! Warwick is my favourite in complete honesty but if I'm accepted to Oxford I'd struggle to turn it down! I've got a lot to think about! What about you?


I totally understand what you mean. I'm loving Warwick too, but have a soft spot for Sheffield as well. I've also applied to Cambridge, but if I'm being honest with myself, I think it's just to see whether I can make it or not, rather than me actually wanting to go there.
