Hi! Thanks so much for the information above. I’ve applied to Warwick for law (undergraduate - 2026 entry) and I know that generally offers are not made this time of year as only early applicants have applied.That being said, I’m wondering if there’s any chance of me being made an offer within the next few weeks? (Predicted 3 A*.) Highly unlikely, I presume, but maybe someone can tell me their experience. Thanks you!

I'm applying for human social political sciences, but the only other uni that do it (to my knowledge) is Cambridge, and they allow you to add to your personal statement in the MyCamb. As far as I know there's nothing like that for this course at Warwick?? Is it an expectation that my PS by distributed between the main human social and political sciences in the course?? I do mention some social anthro but mine is mostly sociology and politics because I'm applying for that everywhere else
Hey everyone!

How are you all feeling? Is anyone applying for any courses with an early deadline (October 15th)? It’s a week to go, so just wanted to check in and see how you're feeling 😄

If you need some help with your personal statement, we have a whole forum dedicated to your questions (just don't post any part of your statement!), and some example statements in our PS library.

What are your main questions?

If you're not applying early, have you started looking around at booking any open days yet? If so, how are they going? Have you visited Warwick yet?

Good luck everyone :woo:

Hi,
I was wondering whether anyone had some answers for my questions about warwick? I want to apply there for neuroscience as my fifth choice (i'm a med sch applicant).

I emailed Warwick and asked whether they would consider a med sch applicant and they came back to me saying to write a bit about neuroscience in my ps but they mainly focus on grades. I'm predicted A*A*A in Maths, bio and chem and updated my ps to include neuroscience related content for q2. Would it be worth applying to Warwick or is it too competitive? Does anyone have any stats on acceptance rates or any advice?

Thanks!:smile:

I handed mine in to my schools sixth form office on the 24th of September, and I think I got my confirmation emails just before October. So it’s been about 2-3 weeks since I handed it in!!

International Applicant (USA) so my qualifications will likely mean nothing to someone who isn't already familiar with our system.

1) AP Calculus BC, Statistics, World History, Chemistry, US History, and English Language & Composition completed, currently taking Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, US Gov & Pol, Human Geography, African American Studies, and Computer Science A.
2) PPE (likely BSc route), I love the multidisciplinary nature and high flexibility the course offers, as well as being very into all 3 subject areas
3) 5 achieved on Calculus, Statistics, and Chemistry, predicted on Micro, Macro, Gov, Human Geo, and Comp Sci; 4 achieved on World History, US History, and English Language, predicted on AAS; 1580 SAT (1 sitting, 780 math and 800 reading/writing)
4) I really love their course, with the unique modules, high flexibility, and focus on the intersectionality of the 3 subjects. Very close with Oxford for where I want to go.
5) No, though I will be briefly stopping by Coventry and the campus to get a feel in late November
6) Nervous but excited, just hoping I can get into somewhere good.
7) Submitted Application to Oxford (PPE), KCL (Political Economy), Manchester (PPE), and Nottingham (PPE)
