"Hi, apologies if this has already been covered, but could you please elaborate on what these strikes mean for the assessment process? I'm an international applicant for the LLM program, and, as far as I know, none of my fellow applicants have received any update since submitting their applications (everyone is still 'under review'). So are all the law faculty on strike? How come applicants for other courses have moved to the PAO/received offers/been rejected already? According to Cam's webiste, all LLM decisions will be made by the 1st of March. If the strike lasts till the 2nd, there's no way this can happen, right?"

Response: "Academics who are on strike are doing no work at all, including assessing applications, in order to try to force the university to save their pensions. Some academics are not striking. The strikes have not also been continuous since 14 Feb, they have been on certain days. So people still getting processed either fell on one of those days, or the academics that needed to look over their application didn’t strike, or there was just admin stuff left and the admin staff wasn’t striking. Whether or not you hear back on 1 March or not depends on how many LLM academics were striking and how much work they were able to do on admissions around the strikes."
I personally don't have any more information than the above.
