Dark Arts: UCAS student wants to study wandology at Hogwarts, how about ‘reading the vampire’ at Hertfordshire?

I love the story about the prospective student who applied to study wandology at Hogwarts only to get an official letter of rejection from UCAS!! Do they know they can study vampires, werewolves and other dark arts at the University of Hertfordshire thanks to OGOM?  ‘Reading the Vampire’ could be his second choice perhaps or Generation Dead: YA fiction and the Gothic. I teach both of these!!

    Just done the Pottermore quiz at the behest of a friend. Turns out I’m a Ravenclaw with a 14.5 inch wand (brittle) made with cherry tree and a core of phoenix feather. But I’m now far to old for Hogwarts … Sigh.
