    I had been planning on accepting both courses I have been offered untill I make up my mind in a couple of days.
    I thought I already essesntially had my QUB offer, but I got a letter today saying to email them telling them to let them know if I am definately accepting.
    My friend who did not want her UCAS offer has just been talking to out guidance counsellor. She said not to inform the UK college as when she accepts her CAO offer it will cancel out her UCAS one and she will not get a place.
    Is this true??

    UCAS cannot see if you've accepted a course from the CAO as they are totally seperate.

    Don't contact them until you decide what you are going to do. They may ring you up if you do not reply to their email in a couple of days though. Happened to me a few years back. I had offers from UCD and TCD and Uni. of Ulster (mature student place).

    Sorry, I meant the other way around.
    But I suppose it would be relevant if it worked this way too.
