UCAS Offers come through on a Monday - Saturday, but not on a Sunday.

Inevitably you will turn into a Track addict and check every waking hour of the day :yep: but really no need to check yourself until after 5pm (which is when the automated e-mails are sent from UCAS).

Anyways, good luck :yep:

Only on Saturdays I think. I am not sure. I think I got my offer from Manchester on a Saturday. My LSE was on a Friday and I think they always give replies on Fridays.

My friend got an offer on a Sunday and it wasn't a case of her not having checked it on the Saturday as she had checked it earlier that day (Sunday).

UCAS has an automated system which sends out e-mails to anybody who has received an offer/rejection, however these e-mails are only sent out at 11am and at 5pm, so for example:

If you receive an offer at 10am - you will get an e-mail at 11am to tell you so.

If you receive an offer between 11:01am and 4:59pm you will get an e-mail at 5pm to tell you so.

If you receive an offer after 5:01pm, you will not receive an e-mail to tell you until the following morning at 11am (but you can still receive offers in this time, and a lot of people do, so it's best to check with Track yourself at this time).

Hope I've made that clear?
