Has Anyone being rejected by UEA?

I'm still pretty relaxed about UEA cos hardly anyone's heard from them so they're gonna be interviewing more and no ones been rejected yet. Its when other people start to get interviews and rejections that I start to really worry.

they interview the top 500 ppl and give out 250 offers. they interview untill early march. All ppl who r at UEA at there final year of degree get garuteed an interview and so do ppl on the west anglia course.

Ok, let's clear a few things up.

There's 250 OFFERS, there are about 130 places in each year and the powers that be reckon half of the offers will be accepted/met.

Remember that not everyone applying to Med School uses this forum so they have rejected people and you wouldn't know about it! Doesn't mean they haven't rejected anyone yet.

The expected deadline for Ucas replies is April but that's assuming you've heard back from all your applications. If you haven't, that deadline doesn't apply to you. The deadline you'll get is about a month (?? may have to check that) after you hear from your last uni. From talking to people, it seems quite common in Medicine that you may not hear back from all your unis before then.

Keep calm everyone and fingers crossed

Last year I was automatically interviewed by UEA becasue I was undertaking an Access course. Does anyone know if this policy is still in place for all Access course students? Is anyone in the same position as I am?

I am quite worried as I have heard nothing.

Yes, all Access course students get an automatic interview, just like people like me who are in their final year at UEA on another course.

In addition to the whole places things, not to confuse people but I read a couple of days ago on Concrete, the student newspaper, that UEA med school have been given the go ahead to increase their places from 130 to 155. However, whether that applies this year...no idea, most likely from next year.

i think the DoH said it would like us to increase, i dont think it happen till our new school is built...i mean we wouldnt have the room...
