Sidney Sussex English Acceptance - What should I take note of for my conditions

Just got accepted!! However ss didn't specify my conditions in the email (which I thought they would specify as I know lucy cavendish does that) and specifically said I am under 18 - is it something I should take note of? What might be the conditions?

Here are my scores:
TOEFL 117
9 AP all 5s - APUSH/APWH/AP English Language + a few other
SAT 740/790
I have two predicted grades: one for AP Lit and one for AP Human geo - both 5

Help I am so confused 😭

hey! unfortunately i don't have advice, just wanted to say that curiously/coincidentally i'm in *exactly* the same situation? english offer from sidney with unspecified conditions due to my under-18 status. (also you're the first english @ sidney offer holder i've seen online: hi & hope to see you there!)

I'm assuming it's just some administrative stuff they have to deal with and our conditions will be forthcoming soon? At least my email seemed to imply the remaining work was on their end and I just had to keep an eye out for emails. Congrats on the offer :smile:

I've got Sidney too, but for BioNatSci. I haven't seen many of us, I guess it's cause it's a small college

Ohh hiii’!!!! Congrats on the offer! Yea I think they are just busy dealing with some procedural things so we got to wait for a while lol - also would you mind if we connect via other softwares (ie. Instagrams) as well? I really do want to know some people in the same college (presumably same major hahahaha) before I head to the UK LOL - totally fine if you don’t any to connect as well! I’m literally praying for ss to release conditions faster 😭
