Student receives Glasgow semester dates four years after receiving offer

He got the offer in 2012


An Edinburgh third year received an unconditional offer from the University of Glasgow in 2012, but before accepting his offer there, he requested the semester dates from Student Services.

Four years later, and Glasgow have only just replied, after he accepted to study at Edinburgh.

They also gave the wrong years term dates.

What could have been

Now this third year is in a whirlwind of emotion at what could have been, had he managed to receive the term dates and accept Glasgow’s offer.

The third year, who wishes to remain anonymous, says: “Every time I go to a gig, it’s in Glasgow. No bands come to Edinburgh. Every time I go to Glasgow I’m reminded of what could have been

”Seeing Arctic Monkeys was great. In Glasgow. Running to get the last train before midnight and missing it, was not so great.

”Sitting at a bus stop for three hours till the bus from London to Edinburgh via Glasgow let me and my mate on for free reminded me of what could have been”

The University of Glasgow were unable to give a comment.
