How long to receive UCAS offers?

I applied for English Literature at the University of Edinburgh, Manchester, Bristol, Leeds and Liverpool. My predicted grades are A*A*A .

My application was sent to UCAS on the 6th November, and I have received all of the acknowledgement emails from these universities, but I was wondering how long it takes to get an offer after applying?

I applied to Manchester (different subject) and they gave me an offer in 3 days, I've seen that Bristol and Edinburgh are giving out offers already too. It could be any time now really, but it varies depending on uni and some wait until the January deadline to start giving offers

Ahh okay! Hopefully will hear from them soon then

It can be anytime from a few days to next May - and the speed/timing of offers is not significant.
Try not to keep checking your phone, it'll drive you nuts.
