Happy New Year 14

Congratulations to all those of you who have received UCAS offers or interviews. Good luck with the interviews. The UCAS final deadline is just about a week away. Supporting those students still working on their application will be Alicia's main priority. Don't waste time worrying or talking yourself out of applying, come and talk about it. Remember that it is important to get your personal statement to your main reference writer, even if it's just a draft. You will get valuable feedback and your reference will be all the better. Remember too that your reference writer needs a couple of days to complete the reference and get it attached to your application. Don't, whatever you do, leave it until the last minute. If you are running into a clash between the UCAS deadline and revision for your module exams, come and talk about it. Putting in the application doesn't mean you can't change your mind later, but missing the deadline leaves you without some of the opportunities you are entitled to.
