Does anyone know how long Newcastle Uni takes to answer an enquiry?
Hey. I applied to enter Newcastle University this year and realised I had selected the slightly wrong course (instead of just computer science it was computer science with cyber security).
Unfortunately, I noticed this a day after the UCAS deadlines so I sent an enquiry through their online portal. This was on the 27th of January.
Yesterday I got an email that they accepted my application for the course with cyber security, so I'm scared they might change their minds about me changing course.
I'd be fine with going in for CS with Cyber Security, but I'd rather choose the more generalised course to get a better feel the field of CS.
I know they must be very busy right now dealing with all the applicants, but I'm scared they might have lost my enquiry since it's almost been 3 weeks!

I meant they might not allow me to change course*. Sorry for any confusion, I don't see an option to edit the thread.

Hi this is a late response but I'm wondering if you had any issues with switching your course and how long did it take them to respond as I am in the same situation as you however instead of course its uni because they can't offer my course anymore.
