DS has used the Surrrey Uni medical centre (he's doing Acting degree at GSA) and they've been good.

There's an Acting strand at Arts Ed 6th form, if you can afford the eye-watering fees. I believe there is one at the Brit School too but you need to live in the right postcode. There may be something at BOA and SOTE in Birmingham too. However (and this is just my opinion of course!) I'm not sure it'...

@Ditzi this is brilliant news, a huge well done to your daughter!

@lotsolaffs I have just sent you a PM. Thank you.

Yes I remember, I’ll bear that in mind, thank you. It’s good to know someone who’s already doing the course. Dd has a few friends at GSA but they are doing the MT course. DS was the same, he had 2 friends who got places on the MT degree for the same year as him, and he already knew a couple of fina...

@Harry2003. Wow at the offers, or few offers. DD keeps telling me it’s a 1.8% success on auditioning. Of course her plan now is to be so impressive and dedicated they can’t not offer her a BA! That sounds like a solid plan! All the very best of luck for a great year. Can I ask how much the extra le...

Huge congratulations Ditzi's daughter! That's really great news. You might remember my DS is on the Acting course at GSA, in Year 1. He's really happy with it. He did want London, but now he's there he's seeing many advantages to being at GSA, and he really rates his tutors. If I/he can answer any ...

Oh sorry, just seen it's the Acting/MT BA.... Definitely worth exploring further, if only to meet some tutors and see the facilities before deciding.

And congratulations @K8t's DD too on her recall! I agree with you, if it's not a huge expense for you she may as well go to the recall at IC and see what she thinks. What makes her think it wouldn't be the right place for her? It's surely worth checking it out before committing to GSA Foundation. Bu...

@k8t Congrats to your DD on her GSA MT Foundation offer. That's great! If it is MT she wants to do, then I'd take it. The RB offer is probably really interesting for someone who wants to do American Theatre but they're not at all the same thing, so I'd say she should think about what it is she wants...

@K8t Thanks for explaining. I guess if it says decision pending, it really is exactly that. Very frustrating for your DD but it sounds hopeful, at least.

@k8t Congrats to your DD on her reserve offer from PPA. That's an interesting one - I hadn't really heard of it until recently but suddenly a few people seem to be going there. Could be good to somewhere when it's on the up? Re no news from GSA, I'm not clear what stage things are at. Is it for MT d...

@lollipop, I'm trying to remember, but DS was in this position last year as he got an offer from a UCAS college in early Feb and then didn't hear back from another place until really late. I was very stressed as I thought he would lose the place, but he didn't. UCAS is probably the safest route, as ...

In my humble opinion, this process should not be attempted without gin.
