Cambridge application 2018/2019

Hi everyone

Does anybody know when we will receive an official offer, after having received the mail from Suzanne Wade?



The email (as you know) says "in due course". I suspect it'll take a while, as they still have to work on things like college allocations. I might be wrong, though!

Man, looking at ‘under review by department’ sure is tiring, especially with the knowledge everything will be out by Friday! Tempted to log out of everything until Friday. How is everyone else passing the time?

Just don't ask, I've got no idea how I'm able to manage the stress lol...

Find some work to do. I'm currently writing my dissertation which helps me get my mind off from the result

Hello everyone!
I have received the email from Mrs Wade on the 5th, but my status hasn't changed on the portal yet. Am I the only one in that case? I'm stressed that it would be a mistake.

Congratulations to the lucky ones, good luck to the others!

Nah you’re not alone. That’s the case for most of us (from what I’ve gathered). You’re good :)

Weird question, but does anyone have an idea of how many offers Cambridge gives out in comparison to the amount that accepts. I am of the opinion that the LLM demands might be less this year due to Brexit, could be a reason why most of the uk universities increased the fees by 5k?

Also, if you do not mind my asking. Might anybody else be rejecting the offer for an american ivy or any other top universities?

My application status still reads "under review by department". I haven't heard from Cambridge so far, but since someone in this thread mentioned that decisions will be sent until Friday, I keep my hopes up.

A colleague of mine who attended the Cambridge LLM programme two years ago said that (apparently) decisions are usually announced to students in alphabetical order, which might be the reason that I haven't received the e-mail so longed-for as of yet.


Not true. Decisions are dealt with in batches with no reference whatsoever to alphabetical order. Both times I accepted offers from Cambridge, I was among the first people to receive offers. And yes, my name starts with letters somewhere in the bottom half of the alphabet.


Thanks for your response. I was unsure whether this was true as I couldn't possibly see why the admissions office would stick to such a more or less pointless rule. Seems like all I can do is wait and see (and not forget to check my spam mail, too). Good luck to everyone else who is still in the race!

If you google "cambridge admission statistics" you can find the answer to that

I haven't. But from what I've seen from the other users is that from 7PM onwards there's a boom of results being released. So let's see if something happens in :30 mins.

Congratulations to all those who got an offer!
I just heard back from Cambridge... unfortunately didn't get a place :(
After Oxbridge, which University is best for an LLM? (I have an offer from LSE, KCL, QMUL and UCL)

Does anyone know which one is ranked the highest for law?

Thanks in advance!

Sorry to hear that, but you already have offers for such a good universities. In a first view, I would go for LSE, but your decision should include other factors as scholarships, reputation on your country, your career plans, etc.

Just to know, you received an e-mail or your status in the application portal changed?
