Hi guys,
To those of you that got a call (last week) offering you a place at Edwards Hall, have you received that 'letter' they said they would send? It's been a week already and I haven't received anything yet :(

Edwards Hall are slack bastards. When I applied there in '02 I didn't hear anything from them and then decided to ring up and ask about 2 weeks before O-week and the bastards said that I didn't get in.

sorry to hear that countrydude, you should try calling again and enquire why you didn't get a first round place (could it be because you might have applied later than everyone else?). If you had many other preferences down your list then they should offer you a place.

To anyone that got an offer to edwards hall, have you received any e/mails yet?

If you got an offer for edwards hall, you like me should have received a phone call from Rowena or Luce and they would have told you that you would receive an email (not a letter as there wasn't enough time left) between Saturday 29th feb and Mon 31st Feb. I haven't received one yet and so if it isn't there this arvo when I arrive home I intend to call them.

i called them up yesterday and they said they'd email the stuff by the afternoon. Then i called again today and they said sometime today (they've been really busy). As long as we get the stuff before o-week !

congrats.

i dont think there is intercollegiate league anymore, but teds do have a rugby game between the 2 main blocks every year.

From memory the intercollegiate sporting events are:

*swimming
*cricket
*soccer
*touch
*basketball
*running (well they have a college division in the campus scamper)

And yes, intercollege sport is independant of NUsport, ie. intercollege sport is organised solely by the colleges.
