Unsuccessful by default

I just received an update on UCAS about my standing application to Edinburgh, and it says unsuccessful by default since the university didn't respond by the deadline.

This is quite devastating news, especially since I have been calling and sending them e-mails with a request for a status update in my application. I knew they were slow at responding, but getting rejected this way is pretty disheartening.

Does anyone have any advice on how to proceed? I am going to try and call them and see if they just forgot to respond, but it seems like I was getting rejected either way.

I have never actually heard of that happening before. And yeah, for certain, I'd call them ASAP.

Good luck!

woah. I have never heard of that before! deffo give them a ring. Did you by any chance apply after the deadline?

Me neither! Like I knew they were slow, but I still thought I would get a straightforward yes or no haha.
I applied before the deadline and luckily got two offers, but I just feel like I need closure on this one.

I am in the same situation, actually. This is very strange!

What, really? That is weird! Are you an EU student and which course did you apply for?
I guess we'll both be calling them first thing in the morning :P

I am an international student, not from EU. Honestly, this is really weird, since I've even provided my transcripts to the university, because they told me that they were required for the assessment, so I thought that everything would be ok with my application. So, yes, probably I should call too!
