I applied for Cardiff and bristol. Last year I only applied for Cardiff and had an interview. Obviously didn’t get in but got shortlisted. So I know roughly the date to hear back from them but no idea about bristol. I’ve seen a couple of comments about getting interviews but that was early February. I phoned and asked they said it is in batches and my application is still waiting decision! Such a tense wait!! X

last year from what I could tell on here most people heard during half term, and then everyone else got put on hold. so that would have been last week. And then after that a few people who had been on hold got invited to interview. I was just left on hold until being rejected last year. What was the process like for Cardiff?

How do you know you’re on hold is it ucas or email? Cardiff was hard but it was my first year applying and first interview so I did not know what to expect. I’m a mature student. What qualifications do you have if you don’t mind me asking?

via email. Dental nursing and an access course, seems like a very common combination for applicants. how about yourself?

I feel it’s now unlikely to get an interview they told me interviews are happening now and into March. But giving they like to give two weeks notice to me it’s looking less likely. But you never know!
