Hi all, my dd is on the reserve lists for GSA and Urdang - does anyone know if would she automatically be considered for their foundation courses? She is still waiting to hear back from Central but has no firm offers yet so thinking we need to look at foundations asap!
Hi, I am not sure about Urdang but I know at GSA they sometimes offer a place for the foundation during the interview stage for the degree. I would give them a call and ask as I don't think they move applicants from reserve to foundation, your DD would probably have to apply separately. I am not 100% sure if applications are still open but its definitely worth a chat with someone there! Good luck.
Thank you I might give them a call & check!

You definitely have to apply separately for the foundation course at GSA. There are still places on the course and the closing date I think is the end of June. Hope that helps.

That’s a big help thank you - she is currently doing A levels and feeling the stress of everything so that gives her a bit of time. Thanks again

Hello- does anyone know when Bird send out uniform lists/ required kit lists etc? I understand they don’t have ‘uniform’ as such, but just wondering how much ‘stuff’ is generally required……..
Thanks ☺️

We’ve made our decision and gone for Bird too. I would be interested to know of any uniform list too and are we able to get a Bird hoodie or anything like that?

I was watching a YT video a few weeks ago of a foundation drama student at GSA. She was in halls.

Ah wow fantastic! Gosh, that’s a quick turnaround! But great to be ‘sorted’. Is she going into halls? We got accommodation sorted last week so feel very excited about it all now!

No a house, 5 mins walk away. Will be perfect for popping home for lunch etc or in free time.
