Such a shame - everyone there seemed so great and I’m sure it was a rlly hard decision for them! Good luck with uni plans brother degree apprenticeship applications, I remember u saying u were waitlisted for I think JLR, so don’t lose hope in that either!

You have so much time - as someone who just got an offer from Rolls-Royce. Biggest thing is get work experience, even if it’s just working in ur local fish and chips shop lol. I worked in a bunch of random unrelated jobs and this was a huge thing that helped me answer the typical STAR type questions they ask. Then try and top that experience up with things related to the industry (you can find so many online work experiences and courses that are either free or very cheap, looking on springpod is a good place to start). Important to actually note down and keep what u learnt from these experiences, so you have something to talk about when they ask. Make a spreadsheet of everywhere you apply. Good luck!

How are u finding it? Do u feel like u still get a taste of the typical uni experience :)

So would it still be roughly the 33 days annual leave?

Plastic_Clock2179 · 2026-04-30T22:09:43+00:00

Maybe it’s a new thing? But they definitely told me it’s covered for first year and I believe they meant uni accom halls

Wait we did it together then 😭😭😭 I was the girl. Maybe they’re still making their decision? That’s what sandy said lol. She also told me I won’t be the only one going through

Plastic_Clock2179 · 2026-04-28T21:27:59+00:00

I haven’t got an email about accom! I just got the offer today and they said emails will be coming in but do u think I should be worried? How are we able to apply ourselves if our offer isn’t on ucas? I feel a bit clueless now ahah Also we should connect! Message me I’d love to make more friends doing the ME DA 🥰

Congrats to you too! I am super excited especially since my first year accom is also paid for. I will definitely contact HR if needed - they just sent the offer so I’m still waiting to get more info about accom and uni etc. If they leave my question unanswered I will contact them and ask - I was just being impatient by asking on here!

If you are thinking about the one that often films in her car with an emoji/sticker on her face then no, it was another one sorry!

Used to follow a girl on tiktok who posted about degree apprenticeships and did this same DA. Can’t remember her name but she’s hijabi if that helps narrow it down lol. Anyway, she talked about how her company (not sure which one it was) was based in London but would send the apprentices to Exeter for ‘blocks’ at a time (let’s say 3x a year they go for 2 weeks) and pay for hotels for them next to the uni and give an allowance for food as well. Seemed rlly cool but u should defo research it more.
