    The on time closing date is Friday with the final closing date being 10 December. I'm really hoping to post it tonight but it's not looking good. I'm waiting on a letter of reference from my boss which I then need to copy and verify. Everytime I think I've got it all together, I think of something else that I should include. It's driving me NUTS! Total pain trying to run around getting everything copied and verified with two littlies in tow.

    I called and spoke to the uni and the first lady was great, but the second kinda wiped out any confidence I had. She must have said 4 times 'Just remember if you don't get in, and I'm not saying you won't...' - ah yeah, I kinda think that's what you're saying at this point! LOL.

    But all I can do is try. I haven't told anyone I'm applying except my DH and a friend who is verifiying all my docs (she's a solicitor) so I won't feel like too much of a loser if I don't get in. Well except here with you guys! LOL.

    Willow my dear please follow your heart and do what your are passionate about. 20 years is too long to be bored.

    I know you'll do really well whichever path you take.

    Willow don't stress hun!!!

    My university asked me specifically to provide one with my application. If yours didn't it's probably because they don't assess your application on that. Personally, I found it rather silly that I would be accepted based on a letter and not my experience/qualifications.

    Don't stress ok!!!! You will be fine and I have EVERYTHING crossed for you.

    That's the problem Amy - pretty sure we applied to the same Uni.

    I've gone over all the paperwork again and I can't see anywhere that it asks for a covering letter and no one mentioned it when I was speaking to them on the phone yesterday. How did you know you had to do one? I'm wondering if it depends on the course you're applying for but can't see how that would make sense either.

    Anyway, it's done now. Nothing I can do about it at this point.

    Ok, still haven't heard from the uni. I called last week to ask when I could expect to hear something one way or the other because I was totally over stalking the postie They told me offers were already being sent out and I should know by the end of November, early December.

    So at this point I'm assuming I didn't make the cut and was expecting a rejection letter...but THEN I logged on to my email tonight and found some weird email from the uni about having to change my password to gain access to their online IT services or something??

    WHAT DOES THIS MEAN???!!!
