Some people received their offers in small envelopes containing only two sheets of paper, others got A4 envelopes.

The only way to tell is to open it.


i guess so.
but as i was saying for me, it was quite obvious because the rejection letter and envelope was the exact same as the pool letter.

i had a small envelope and it would have been obvious to me before i opened it whether it had 1 or 2 sheets of paper.

i'm not up to speed on the saq theory, has anyone been unable to login even after requesting a new password?
i've tried twice and it tells me my application is no longer active.

does that mean i've drowned? :frown:
Nobody knows anymore tbh, mine is still active but with original college, no letter or Track update as of yet...
Asking on behalf of a friend- for those who got reinterviewed, can you access your SAQ yet? With the different college on it?

Diobs: Have you ever been able to access your SAQ, or did it suddenly stop working? It's strange, but it seems like you're still swimming in the pool...isn't it that if you drown you go back to your original college...? I have no idea though. And even if you do go back to your original college this doesn't cancel out the possibility of an offer from there

Doesn't seem like you know/like him a lot but do you happen to know how he got the decision; letter, email or phone?

Letter. If you knew him you wouldn't like him.

I've just tried logging in to my SAQ and it now tells me that there's an error, I honestly have still got the same password and UCAS number as this morning so there's no entry error!
I could log in this morning...
Eeek.
No letter yet either. :\

Is it a system error?

Dont worry about it, I get that alot, and my friends can always login for me. You should be able to login yourself again in awhile.

I gave it a while and tried it again, it worked!
Ahhhh all this SAQ drama!

Thanks nirvathema. :smile:
You're welcome:smile:

Argh I'm sure Cambridge has made its decisions by now. Interviews have been over and done with. Why take all the way to the end of Jan to reply to the poor, tortured souls waiting?

System Error in the SAQ

Has anyone got the nerve to email their college and ask them? They would probably tell you if you had been rejected. For me, it almost feels as though, the longer it goes on for from this stage forwards, the better my chance (which sadly is not the case). Anyone? I will if you will.
