Ucas 2023 applicants: have you heard back from your unis yet?

It's been over two months since the Ucas deadline, so you might have started receiving replies from the unis you applied to.

Don't worry if you haven't heard anything yet - unis have until 18 May to send offers and response times can vary, as this article on The Uni Guide explains.

If you have started getting offers, this look at firm and insurance choices could be useful. And if you're still waiting, here's how to keep your cool.

There's still plenty of time left, but have you heard back from your unis yet? How many offers have you got?

Let us know :smile:

I got all 5 replies pretty quickly

Although I didn't apply to extremely competitive unis... so take it with a grain of salt (especially if you're apply for extremely competitive unis)

I got an unconditional from St Andrews which I accepted a few weeks ago. Pretty quick I'd say, considering the uni is famous for being slow to respond. Feeling very grateful as I worked my butt off in S5 for it and it's also extremely competitive to get into. Good luck to everyone else who's applied! :smile:

Yeah, if the replies are quick you can plan much more easily. You'd have a lot more time to plan, apply for scholarships etc.

I received 2 Unconditionals from the same uni for two different courses before even hearing from the other 2 unis I had applied to!!
By the time one of the other unis had got in touch with an offer to interview, I had already decided to accept one of my offers. Never ever heard from my third uni - not even an acknowledgement of my application.

Got a rejection from Edinburgh within a week, got offers from Newcastle (2 courses) and Birmingham within 3 weeks and after almost 5 months of waiting, I got an offer from Durham.

All offers are conditional.
