Anyone STILL not heard from Imperial?

Hang in there . Don't let it bother you, seriously, it's not worth the worry. I was really really depressed during my ucas application cycle, looking back now, i feel stupid. The world is your oyster, not getting into Imperial won't change this. I seriously do mean this.

Is there any Mechanical Engineer still have not got reply?

That's me

Regarding the mechanical engineering I heard from the admissions tutor that they still haven't considered the European applications yet since the tutor has been in Singapore. I already have an offer from the civil engineering department but I've been asking for a transfer to H304 so that's the reason I've been nagging on them .. so there's no need to worry for any of the europeans who haven't got a reply from the mech eng department yet...

i think that the bioengineering department has the same tutor as the mechanical one so we're in the same boat.....

I am in ASIA...
may be the same case...

yeah probably.. i heard he was in singapore in order to do get more students to the school, for next year i assume..

Nahh dude thats not true.

Yes when half the school is Asian already the next logical move would be to make it 100% Asian, why not?

Consider it an international school, be pleased if you have a place, and move on!

Some might find comfort in that and some might not, but my overall personal consensus is that studying abroad is a time for leaving the old behind and gaining new experiences. How exactly is an Asian person supposed to achieve that at Imperial (in the future albeit) if the majority of the people are Asian?

And further, more so than often on this particular forum people always seem to complain that the majority of Asians students keep to themselves and do not integrate with the rest of the student population.

Naturally you have the keen ones who are very enthusiastic about joining in on student life. This is not my opinion this is the accumulated opinion of people on the TSR Imperial forum, surely by letting even more people in from a particular part of the world will not ease segregation - which clearly is annoying other students.

Consider yourself being an Asian student coming to Imperial, hopefully for the world class education but also for the new experiences a new country brings. Is it not defeating the objective about studying abroad to be surrounded by ones own kind? .

Imperial will not be a small bubble world. It is in central London, one of the most diverse places anywhere. They will not be in the university 24/7 but gaining a huge insight into so many different cultures mixing together in London. New experiances is different for everyone. It might not be every asian persons wish surrounded by ones own kind, but it might be for some. Nevertheless anybody will gain loads of experiance when going to whatever university abroad.

I do understand what your getting at here, but a large majority of the university is not asian at all. Imperial just has a higher proportion of asians compared to to other universities. Although it is true to some extent that a majority of them stick together, not all of them do. Its just a matter of them being comfortable with people of like ethicnity not that they want to be segregated. Although i have seen it at first hand at Imperial and it does look quite annoying, its just like that at every unviersity.
