anyone heard for English?? St. Andrews is my top choice... but also kinda my long shot. i really want to get in... but being only a AAB student and St. Andrews being one of the best Unis in the country... i don't know how much of a chance i stand... :frown:

Not a peep yet :frown:

yeah rejected for ir + history...my ps apparently did not show that I wanted to study the subject enough! A historian from Cambridge thought that it was good enough, but no, it is not enough. I'm seriously pissed now.

Aww, sorry to hear that :frown:

Did you ask for the feedback?
I was rejected a couple of weeks ago and wanted to, but I doubt that they'll give a proper answer.

I looked through last year's St Andrews applicants topic and found that last year the English offers weren't given out until March :frown:

Well, IR is very competitive at St Andrews, even more so then history. If your PS passed a historian, isn't it still very likely that you were rejected because it was not as solid for IR?

I haven't heard anything about my application yet but I was looking through the confirmation email and it said this:

As places for students are limited, the university does not make decisions on applications until we have confirmed tuition fee status, either Home/EU or Overseas/International. For EU applicants who have spent long periods living outside the EU and International applicants living within the EU we may contact you and ask for more details of your residence status. If you are unsure whether you are entitled to pay fees at the Home/EU rate, you can find guidance notes under ‘fees and funding’ on the UKCISA website http://www.ukcisa.org.uk/ and obtain a Fee Status Enquiry Form at http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/admissions/ug/Financialinformation/Feestatus/

Does that mean I have to do something before they can give me a result, or? I'm really nervous about doing/not doing something that will end up making my application unacceptable :P

I really don't know. When I looked at it just now, I personally thought that it was pretty equal. If it is inadequate why am I alive at LSE? They are the school that cares the most about them.

W/e time to move on. At least I am still alive for history.

oh.... that only applies to you if you're

(a) foreign but live in the EU
(b) EU Citizen who has lived outside the EU

if you've lived in the UK for your whole life... then no need to worry :smile:

IR at St Andrews is so sought after you will probably find that is where your application fell down. Mind you with LSE still to decide you are not doing too bad! :wink:
