Announcements
This discussion is closed.
As a follow up to the "Where have you applied to?" thread, this one will keep up with how your applications are progressing.
Please feel free to keep us informed with any offers you recieve - which should be in the following format:
Also we would like to know how when you get interviews.
As a reference point, I would now like to keep a ready reckoner for you of the deadlines:
Important
If you recieve the response of your final University (AS6F) by date 1 you must reply with a decision of "Firm/Insurance/Offer Declined" by date 2
Missing these deadlines puts your place at risk.
Please stick to the format, any general chit-chat can be kept to the forum, we want this just so we can follow people's progress, and so you can see what sort of time scale / how quickly the Universities are responding with offers etc.
Paper Trail
Confirmation Card
If you have sent off your application by post, you should soon afterwards recieve back your confirmation card which says that they have recieved your application.
YOU DO NOT REQUIRE THIS IF YOU ARE USING ELECTRONIC OR THE APPLY ROUTES OF APPLICATION.
AS2
Confirmation Letter - This document from UCAS confirms the courses and institutes to which you have applied, as well as your Online Enquiry Password, which allows you to track your progress.
Acknowledgements
These will come from each University, thanking you for applying to them, they will get back to you in the near future with their offer details, both on their letter headed paper, and by AS3 (below)
AS3
Offer Letter - These documents are what UCAS send to you with each an University replies to you with an offer. It may contain a rejection, a conditional offer, or unconditional offer.

AS9

This comes after you have made your decision on CF, CI, UF, D, and confirms your current position.
More Acknowledgements
Universities will now reply to you telling you that they appriciate you choosing them as Firm/Insurance, and will invite you up on their post-application open days. It is a good idea to go to these.

OF COURSE I'll get 4 D's!- If I dont' even get this many points, I'll eat my hat. In fact, I wouldn't really go to Bradford. I just put it down cuz I thought I might as well. If I only got into Bradford, I'd take a year out.
But that won't happen.

I heard from Birmingham in November after applying by the Oxbridge deadline (though that was for CS, other departments are gonna have different amounts of applications to deal with, I guess).

Warwick's really slow at getting back to you, it was always my first choice, and when after a month after I got all the other offers I still hadn't heard anything I started to worry a tad. But then it came through, so it was all good!

Poor old Bradford - it's a very good university that suffered hugely from bad press about the town and now can't seem to get back up on it's feet again...there are definately far far worse places to study than bradford.

As for the Prince Harry comment - well, I am not banking on good grades because of where I study but because I have faith in what I can achieve. I got AABB for AS so I doubt it'll slip down further than DDDD at A2.

Are you only speaking from personal experience or is this the case with most applications to Warwick! Does it mean I'll get their offer (or rejection) slowly too?

You seem pretty confident there, but remember: Prince Harry had the best education money can buy and his results were BaD

I got my first conditional offer today!! It's from Leicester to study Psychology. I need BBB to do that, but I only put that one down because I had to put 6 courses!! I'm still crossing my fingers for the medicine ones to come through, but it's nice to know I'm wanted!!
I also recieved a letter from Wales college of Medicine and Uni of Plymouth to confirm that they had recieved my form. Scary stuff!!

I received my AS2 acknowledgement today, but I've been made no offers as of yet - does anyone know roughly how long it takes before they start coming through?
I've applied to: Cambridge, Nottingham, Manchester, LSE and Sheffield for Law.

PS, does anyone know if there's any special reason that I've received two identical brown envelopes from Cambridge - all with the exact same forms inside?
