Well done! Do you mind if you share what your stats are? I'm also about to reapply for Finance as a gap student, changing from economics last year

What stats in particular did you want me to share?

(I'm an international student), can we change unis in the 2nd year and continue with the same course?

It's not particularly simple or standard to be able to do this in the UK. The new uni will want to know that your first year modules are compatible with their course (eg. cover enough of the same content to the same level), which depending on your course may or may not be very likely. Not all unis accept transfers into later years either, you have to speak to them individually to find out.
There's a transfer FAQ which may answer some of your questions stickied in the Applications and UCAS forum :smile:

The usual ones like grades (predicted/achieved), and any ECs if you don't mind

Hi, for those that got the offers - did you get an email from Durham that you have it or just an email from UCAS? I got the email from UCAS only but the UCAS service is down so I can’t check anything at the moment. Thanks!

I understand. Thank you!
anyone heard anything for english ?
Do we think Durham are sending offers earlier this year or does this happen every year? I just always see ppl talking about how Durham often send offers really late but maybe they are changing that 🤷*♀️🤷*♀️

the humanities all seem to be later on as well so probs matters on what you apply for!

There's usually a few offers floating around at this time of year - although usually they are typically international offers so it is a little different this year. But offers at this time of year are not unusual.
