Not that you know me but...

It is highly unlikely that, having been accepted by the Modern History Faculty, you will be refused a place in a college for a postgraduate degree. (Works the other way round for undergraduates, but their teaching is college based whereas for a postgraduate colleges are frankly largely about social life). Even if your first choice of college refuses you, because of a numbers issue or a desire to have a particular emphasis, someone else will take you.

You didn't go for Corpus by any chance? My former college and the home of James Howard Johnston, one of my former supervisors, who is one of Oxford's more eminent Byzantinists. Also a lovely man.
