not sure if anyone got a specific time when their status changed to PAO - just that it did, there were no emails sent out about it. Hope that helps! 

Hey! Any idea how to check when the PAO status changed? Mine changed to PAO when I checked last but I am not sure as to when exactly it changed. Any advice would be appreciated!!!

I got mine around midday! I think offers are being sent out as soon as they can - not at anytime 

Does the PAO release offers at 4 pm GMT, or earlier than that? What time should I expect for an e-mail, this wait makes me too nervous :’) (btw PAO’d on 24/02) 

Most people on this thread reported their offers at around 4pm, so I guess that's when the emails were sent? I PAO'd on 27/02, so I'm expecting my offer towards the middle of next week

Also anyone still on PAO from before or on 21st feb? :) (trying to keep calm + collected)

weird how this doesnt appear to correspond with people recieving offers. i was PAO'd on the 28th but havent heard anything yet. 

That link says the PAO is processing applications from 01/03 now. Guess I’m going to be nervously refreshing my email all evening.

Has anybody received an offer today?

PAO'd 20/21st (Not sure which, probably 21st) just got my offer 5 mins ago.

Just got my offer too! Good luck to all those who are waiting I know how painful the wait can be but keep up hope :) 

Still waiting. Hopeful tomorrow will be the day, slightly worrying and have been dying to tell my parents but haven't until I have the formal offer.

Congrats to all those who have received their offer! Well done!

Same! When were you PAO'd? 

Also, congratulations to everyone who got offers!

Hello guys. Do you think it´s convenient to email PAO to ask about the status of your application? Of course, in the case that the application is in the "awaiting for approval of PAO" status. Just asking because I do not know how reliable or certain it is to be in this status. It´s been awhile since I have been here (2/3 weeks more less). 
My best wishes to everyone.

I think if you've been there that long it is fair, it certainly will not do any harm and maybe you will receive a comforting response. Hope you hear very soon

Hi, longtime lurker here, really appreciate all the news this group has brought to light for me. Thank you very much! Does anybody know whether one has to accept the university’s offer in order to be considered for internal funding? Or do they automatically consider all applicants who have applied before Dec 1 and received a conditional offer? Thank you very much in advance!

Hi ! I've been PAO'd last week and I'm still waiting for an offer. I'm just wondering if there is a standard type of conditonal offer ? I'm canadian and wondering what kind of conditional offers Cambridge gives to applicants (like a specific GPA). 

Best of luck to everyone !

Has anyone received offers so far today? 
I've been POA'd since 22nd February and haven't heard back yet. It's nerve wrecking! 

I'm in the same boat. I checked my portal for the first time at around 8AM London time on the 22nd February and have been on PAO since. Let's hope that today is our day, all the best!

Positively terrified as to why it is taking so long...
