Yes, mine is younger. She is 16 and wil be on the diploma course. Diploma students under the age of 18 have to live with a family. I got the feeling that the degree students also have a separate eating area that diploma students are only allowed to access in their 3rd year so I don't know how much they actually mix, if at all although they all do the main musical together.

I'm sure as the school doesn't seem huge that they will meet up at times x DD liked the fact that it seemed quite family like x I know the degree students had their own area to eat/ chill x DD is hoping to do extra ballet classes so I'm sure they will meet up and as DD looks so young she tends to mix with everyone no matter their age x

I mentioned this to Dd and she had no knowledge of it. The Foundation year graduated on Sunday and I spoke with one student at Dd’s House who said they’d been told they’d be advised within 2 weeks. Looking back through photos on my phone, dd’s welcome pack etc was postmarked 19.5.17. Not long to wait now I’d guess!

Are the phone calls being made to the young person or to the parent?

My daughter has a few friends who are waiting but they are at school today without access to mobile phones.

They did say letters for yes and nos and emails for reserves I think and didn't mention phone calls, so we are not sure what that means. Hard not to overthink things. I guess it means we haven't long to wait whatever happens.
