Is anyone still on hold for Bristol

Applied for Veterinary Medicine. Have been put on hold for Bristol and its been 2 months. Is this normal?

Hi from what I've read Bristol puts everyone on hold once they have first recieved the applications, so its completely normal. I heard back from Bristol last week for a chemistry undergraduate, but I wouldn't worry! Some universities can be quite slow with getting back to you at least from some of my friends experience.

Hi! it's the same case with me, i have been on hold since October for Pol/IR, still no word from them :/

Bristol is known for getting back at a later time compared to other universities, Bristol should get back to you very soon, i think the latest they will get back is May

Hope this helps and good luck!

Same place over here, Bristol just takes a while, took until late march early April last year to get back to me on my first go around with the application process. So hopefully we will all hear back soon. Good luck!

I've been on hold for veterinary science since 13th February, I think they said they are aiming to get all of the decisions out before easter.

They did a zoom call in September to talk about the SAQ and I thought they said Easter but I just checked my notes and they said spring. ☹️ That's so annoying I thought I only had a few weeks left, sorry!

Are any of you still on hold? I’ve been on hold since October and still haven’t heard anything. Do think that means I’ll likely be rejected?
