# I have submitted my application, when will I get a response?
We aim to have a decision on your application within 3 working days of submission of all required documents and information. Please be assured that all applications are given thorough consideration and therefore at peak times, there may be a delay in getting this decision back to you. Ensure all application fields are completed, as those that do not meet the standard entry criteria may need to be referred to an academic for a decision which will take longer to be assessed. You can contact the admissions team for an update via email: [admissions-team@greatermanchester.ac.uk](mailto:admissions-team@greatermanchester.ac.uk), or by telephone: +44 (0)1204 903 394.
