<p>Does anyone have any idea how fast universities respond and give offers. I just applied to physics and St. Andrew's, Imperial College London, University College (Durham university), and UCL. I am just wondering how long they will take to respond.</p>
<p>From the UCAS website: “If we receive your application by 15 January, the universities and colleges should aim to have sent us their decisions by 31 March”</p>
<p>Also, here is a link to the page with statistics about decision time:[UCAS</a> - Decision time](<a href=“http://www.ucas.com/about_us/stat_services/stats_online/data_tables/decisiontime]UCAS”>http://www.ucas.com/about_us/stat_services/stats_online/data_tables/decisiontime)</p>
<p>Depends entirely on the course and how competitive you are within the applicant pool. I got an EE conditional offer from Warwick within 2 weeks of applying, but this is not the norm. I also applied to Durham and they were really late I think. End of March.</p>
<p>Oxbridge are known for sending out their decisions on Christmas Eve sometimes. So that could make or break your Christmas.</p>
