Cambridge LLM 2016 - 2017 Applicants


Vamiel

Oh well, I just got my grades and that's it. I don't even know what is GPA ?
France has a weird system at uni (bachelor is three years, master is two years but the second year is pretty hard to get into, and we have different types of distinctions across the universities ...)

Does anyone know how many people are accepted into the Cambridge LLM each year? Is there somewhere I can find admission statistics on the website?

Hello Harobed, I believe Cambridge has a class size of 131 for their General LLM program.

Interesting admission statistics:

https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/307015/response/752060/attach/2/FOI%202015%20439%20Johnson%20response%20letter.pdf

So it seems 1 in 3 applicants are offered a place.



Yes, around 35-40% applicants are offered a place, but what is even more interested is a number of applicants who actually accept an offer. This is pretty much in line with what imnc said. It would be interesting to see Oxford's statistics now.

Unfortunately, I think for many applicants, being able to afford the LLM course is as much a hurdle as is the academic requirements. I would attribute the difference between the number of condition offers and acceptances to 1) financial reasons and 2) being accepted into Oxford / Harvard.

Do we know roughly when financial assistance offers are made?

Hey guys,

I have applied to start in 2016 as well, was wondering if anyone had heard something yet?

I know they must have made offers by March but was just wondering!

It's still two months too early for an answer.

Based on last year I think the earliest offers/BOGS will begin in late February... the wait is excruciating!

Yeah I thought earliest was mid Feb too from reading other forums!

Haha indeed, having to wait so long is horrible! Have you guys (already) applied to other places?

I'm only applying for the BCL also, and am just waiting (and stressing) about my final referee submitting their letter in time!

What about you?

Only one of my referees has submitted. I am still waiting for the remaining two to submit. I pray that I meet up with the Friday deadline.

I am applying to LSE and UCL as well but will do so next week.

Ow, I'm lucky all mine got their references in the week after my own deadline!

Last week of February from what I can gather.

Has anyone else's application been 'under consideration by degree committee' since early December?

Mine, but as they said, it must mean that every application is sent to the Degree Committee for the LLM
