MPharm Birmingham and Reading Offers

Hi everyone,
I’ve already received offers from Manchester and Cardiff for pharmacy, but I’m still waiting to hear back from Birmingham and Reading.
I had my Birmingham MPharm interview on January 16th and my Reading interview on January 6th, and I haven’t received any updates yet.
Has anyone who interviewed around those dates heard back? How long did it take for you to receive your offer after the interview?
Thank youuuuu

I had my interview, and five days later the interviewer told me that it had gone positively and that they would recommend me to the admissions team for an offer. They also mentioned that the decision would appear on UCAS within 4–8 weeks. It has now been five weeks and I’m still waiting has anyone else received their offer on UCAS yet?

My interviewer told me 5 days after the interview that it went well and that I would receive an offer, but they said it could take 4–8 weeks for it to appear on UCAS. Has your offer shown up on UCAS yet, or did they only contact you by email?

Yeah thats so valid, it is CRAZY that they are taking that long to put it on ucas, like usually we find out from UCAS first but brum had to be different 😓

Hi there, I hope you are doing well.

Please do not worry; universities often take a while to review each application individually and respond to MPharm applications, especially when applications are made before the winter break, or the course has a high volume of applicants (which it most likely does).
I, for example, submitted my application before Christmas break, had my interview with Reading Uni around the end of February, and received my offer around early May.
I hope that was helpful!

Please feel free to ask if you have any further questions here on TSR (or our Unibuddy); we'd be happy to help.
All the best with your applications!

Kind regards,
Safa
