      Let me check with my son. He told me his fren waiting reply from Oxbridge. I assumed it is both.
      Should be \"or\" not \"and\" - no-one is allowed to apply to both in the same year.

                I'm not sure about this, so this is just my best guess. I would guess that if you were rejected by one, you probably can apply to the other in the following year. But if you accepted a place in one in the first year, UCAS will have a record of that, and you probably can't apply to the other the following year unless you rejected the first offer.

                        No. On their own expenses.
