Has anybody had a recent offer from King's or Edinburgh for Classical Studies? I applied in late November and haven't heard anything yet but have had offers from Glasgow and Royal Holloway.


I got an offer for classical studies at KCL.

I’ve applied for classics already got 4 offers so far and I also have Manchester as one of my options so might see you at an offer holder day if you go. I mean I know you might not want to study in England but you do have study abroad in 2nd year, so you won’t be here the entire degree.


That would be fantastic 🙂
I mainly would prefer Scotland to be in travelling distance to my big sis and other family. I’m from Northern Ireland so it’s a bit intimidating being so far away from home I have to admit. It’s an extra comfort knowing that there will be friendly people going too; especially seeing how huge Manchester seems to me. I’ve also go 4 offers (St Andrews seems to have ghosted me!) so it’s cool to see other people getting offers too🙂
I hope to see you there!

I think maybe your application happened to get stuck at the bottom of the pile but I wouldn’t stress.
I got an offer of ABB, but I’m from one of those schools where we send our application in really early!
I’m sure you’ll hear good news soon, but good luck all the same 🙂

Is there anyone studying Ancient History or who has gone through L6 UCAS applications who could recommend some good books to read over quarentine that would be good for personal statements for this subject at somewhere like Durham or Nottingham. Also besides Durham can anyone recommend a good Ancient History course that touches on philosophy and/or Augustus GA and/or Julius Caesar. Thanks :smile:
