Is anyone else getting to Merton the night before the interviews? My train gets in to Oxford at 21:40 and I am panicking about getting to the college so late!!

On the letter that they emailed from the JCR reps, they said that they can pick you up if you come late at night. I’d drop an email to the admissions office, I’m arriving at 3-4ish by train the day before. Where are you coming from???

Oh, that's a good idea, thank you! I'm coming from just north of Manchester, how about you??

I’m from West Yorkshire - not too far away! I’m getting the train to Birmingham and then changing at Birmingham to get to Oxford. I thought trains from Manchester were quite regular to Oxford?

They are, haha, but since I'm already missing three days of sixth form I didn't want to miss another! At least I only have two changes - if I'd have gone from my station it would have been four but luckily I'm getting a lift in to Manchester!
