A couple of questions to ask them back.Hello, has anyone ever been placed on the reserve list for a VS before? I have just been informed that I did not get a VS but was told that my interview went very well and that they would like to offer me a VS if someone rejects their offer (which they said could happen anytime until the actual scheme starts in summer). Should I get my hopes up at all or not? I just really did not expect this and don’t know how to feel about it so I would love it if someone could provide me with some perspective thank you!
1) where are you on the waiting list? Are there other people ahead of you on the waiting list, and if so can they give you an indication of where you are on the list so you can manage your expectations
2) what would be the latest date they would potentially consider still offering you a place?
For them to operate a waiting list, it clearly is possible for people to be offered from it. If they historically didn’t need the waiting list, they wouldn’t operate one now.
