Not long to consider is there?, have you thought about BCU or staying locally in the Midlands as it would be easy access and although travelling somewhere else would have it's advantages and disadvantages sometimes it doesn't turn out to be the right decision or neither is staying locally depending on what happens LOL.

I did think about it but I decided if I do go I want to move away. What's putting me off more than anything is the fact that so many graduates are finding it difficult to get jobs. But then I realise I still don't really know what I want to do as a career and university will give me an extra 3/4 years to think about that as well as get extra qualification/work experience which can only benefit. Sometimes I just feel like I wanna earn now though. I'll probably end up going though tbh.

What was their offers?

I've firmed UWE, and put NTU as insurance.
UWE accomodation went live today and I wasn't expecting it to until April, but hopefully i'll get student village.

haha, I'm so glad I don't have to do all this exciting/nervous waiting again. What others did you apply to Shaun? UWE is better night life but a **** university generally (I think anyway - not sure about your course) but Bath Spa has less of a night life and more credibility.

My application is now being considered, will have to wait and fingers crossed to get some good news!

Good luck to anyone who is still waiting or applying.

other choices were Hertfordshire, Newport and (still haven't heard back from) Winchester.

UWE - 340 points, which I'm not certain I'd get
Bath Spa - 300-320

plus bath spa is cheaper to live in, I know someone there, and it's a better place to study English apparently.

340 is quite high thats like AAB?
But yeah Bristol is an expensive city to live in and UWE's accomodation isn't exactly cheap.

Think I'll firm Lancaster, or maybe UEA, and have Kent as my insurance, I'll probably end up leaving it to the last minute though

Bumping this as I see a few of you are starting to get offers coming through and maybe you'd like to discuss with each other?
