Durham- When do offers usually come out?

Hi everyone! I’m applying for Theology & Religion at Durham this year and I’m planning to submit my UCAS application in mid–late November. I’m predicted AAA* maths, economics, and english literature, and my personal statement is good. (lots of relevant reading + some meaningful volunteer experience), so I’m hoping that helps make my interest clear.
I know Durham can take quite a long time with decisions, especially for the really competitive courses like Law or International Relations. But Theology and religion seems like a smaller course that hasn’t always filled up immediately so I’m wondering if that means offers might come out a bit earlier, or whether they still hold a lot of decisions back until Feb/March?

I’ve also applied to Edinburgh, Exeter, Nottingham and Bristol, and I imagine most of them will respond before Durham... I just have no idea how much earlier that might be!
If anyone here applied for Theology & Religion at Durham in recent years or any other course less competitive (especially if you submitted around November), when did you hear back? Any insight at all would be really appreciated! Thanks 😊

Hey! Durham reviews all applications equally, regardless of when they’re submitted (as long as it’s before the UCAS deadline). Some applicants do receive offers earlier, however, many offers are still held until February or March, especially if the department wants to compare applicants across the full pool.

I heard back after the UCAS deadline when I applied but that was a few years ago now!
