For context, I didn’t do very well for A Levels — mostly Cs and Ds, with an RP below 50. I received an offer from SUSS for a course that I’m genuinely interested in, but I haven’t heard back from the other universities yet.
The main one I’m still waiting on is NTU because the course there aligns more closely with the career path I’m considering. However, their response window is apparently from March to July, which is after the deadline for me to accept the SUSS offer. Given my RP, I know even getting one offer is already a miracle, so I’m not sure if it’s realistic to keep waiting in hopes that NTU might consider me through ABA. My portfolio honestly isn’t especially strong either and I didn’t hold major leadership positions in JC apart from being an OGL. Even if I do get shortlisted for an NTU interview soon, the final outcome would probably only come after the SUSS acceptance deadline anyway.
Does anyone know if it’s possible to accept the SUSS offer first and withdraw later if needed? Is there usually a penalty or fee involved, and if so, how much? Or would it make more sense to just accept the SUSS offer now and move on?
