Unconditional (three A stars in hand) for Sociology within 24 hours today 😁.

I've applied for sociology too, not heard back yet but got AAAAB at higher - high entry requirements right???

I’ve applied for Mathematics and history and received AABBC (not the best) but I come under the widening access criteria and i’m sitting 2 advanced highers (history and mathematics) and i’m predicted AA and i’m sitting higher politics where i’m also predicted an A. I got an A in higher mathematics and history in S5. Have I got a chance of an offer as they want AAAAA by the end of S6?

oooh what were your highers grades from S5, if you don't mind sharing? I'm hoping for a modern languages offer with 3 As a B and a C from S5...not sure if that's too low to get a conditional offer (studying 3 AHs in S6)...

Hi, I applied for economics/politics and I just got a conditional offer back for AAB with grades in a humanity subject and maths. I'm an English student who doesn't apply for a contextual offer and I'm predicted A* A* A in history, chemistry and maths. I hope this helps! 🙂

Thanks so much for sharing. Seems a conditional is possible then based on current s5 results. Thanks again for replying!!

Hi there,

Welcome to the official University of Glasgow Applicant Thread for 2024! Here, you have the opportunity to meet and chat with fellow applicants and ask any questions you want regarding applying to University of Glasgow.

Below are some icebreaker questions to help you get started:

“What course are you applying for?”
“Will you be attending any Open Days?”
“How are you feeling about starting University?”

Get involved in more conversations by visiting our directory here and join in with the Yr 13 Chat thread here.

Good luck and happy posting!

I'm an international student considering applying for the English Literature MA program at the University of Glasgow. The minimum entry requirements are AAB-BBB, including one humanities subject.

I believe I meet these criteria with my advanced-level subjects in Business, Economics (considered a humanities subject), and Accounting. In my AS level exams, I got 3A’s and expect a final result of A*AA.

Additionally, I got an A in English Literature at the GCSE ordinary level.

In terms of extracurriculars, I've been actively involved in Model United Nations, the student parliament, the interact club+ interact club editorial circle)t. I've also worked part-time as a video narrator and have a personal blog (I write about personal finance and self-improvement)

Since I didn’t take English Literature as an A-level subject, I'm curious about my chances of admission. Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated!

You are very very likely to be accepted. The offer rate is very high especially when you exceed the requirement. You may be offered a place less in 48 hours.

Hi Everyone, I am Dyl. I studied my undergraduate degree in mathematics at Stirling University. I have firmly accepted my unconditional offer for Glasgow University to complete a PGDE - Mathematics (Graduates Only) course, starting in August 2024. Nice to meet you all!
