Dear All,

I think it is important that Cambridge hears about how badly they have handled their application process this year. I believe that as much as I loved this university, we must accept that the process this year has been very disappointing, largely confusing and clearly messy.

To that end, feel free to drop an email to the following people with feedback.

1. Professor Harris, the LLM Course Director. He is a very lovely gentleman who will try to make things work.

2. Professor Richard Fentiman
Chair of the Faculty Board.

3. Professor Kenneth Armstrong
Chair of the famous Degree Committee

4. Dr D de Cogan
Deputy Director of the LLM

5. Dr Kristy Hughes
Deputy Director of the LLM

I emailed Ms. Wade cc'ing all the dignitaries above to provide a general feedback (based on LegalLife's advice) on the overall LLM application processing process to which Miss Wade replied as follows:
"As you might be aware, formal offer notifications are sent to successful applicants by the Graduate Admissions Office, rather than by the Faculty of Law, because it is the GAO who sets offers for the LLM, following recommendation by the Faculty. The Faculty and the GAO are working to process all decisions as quickly as possible, following our consideration of all LLM applications by 15 March. However, we appreciate that this can take time given the two stage process, and that applicants are understandably keen to know the outcome of their applications as soon as possible. We will therefore consult the Graduate Admissions Office to see whether it would be possible for the Faculty to send informal offer notifications to successful applicants prior to the formal offer from the GAO."
I hope we will hear from them soon.

While I can't speak for everyone, thanks for doing what I was considering doing but wasn't ready to handle the heat. The wait is getting to me, my parents think I am didn't get the admission, my mentor looks at me as if waiting for an answer but is too polite to enquire until I tell him. Am getting too antsy, non productive and too much turmoil.

Thanks a lot for the support @username_is_use it's much appreciated .

@Callbhockq Thanks so much man. Really appreciate it.

@Callbhockq Thank you ! :)

Did Mrs Wade get back to you today???

How many applicants are still at UCDC? Why are we not getting any replies, but are kept in limbo for eternity?

Ms Wade's willingness to respond to Callbhockq's email re our frustrations, but not to our own emails re applications is especially annoying, particularly in light of the fact that she answered the first few. Grr.

I honestly thought this week would be the last #foreverDC week, but the way it has been the last two days in all probability it's going to be a #foreverDC March! :(

I bet they're waiting for April 1st to make fake offers :-D

#ForeverDC

No one heard back from them today? :( I'm a little bit confused.. if we are still dc, does that mean that we have to pass BOGS stage as well? Or due to their delay we'll be notified if we were successful oe not without BOGS stage?

My status changed today from "Awaiting consideration by the Board of Graduate Studies" to "Application awaiting approval by GGS". Whatever that means.

Dear all, I have been following this thread for quite some time now and I'd like to thank you for sharing. I feel it is my turn now. I am still UCDC and Ms Wade haven't replied yet to the email I sent on Tuesday at 3:45 UK time. I don't know what to think but will keep you posted. Good Luck! M.

To everyone who is still waiting , I have a feeling that they will make all the decisions first then send out acceptance or rejections. Because I got an offer through e-mail but my self service still says under degree consideration. So I guess you guys just have to wait it out a bit more :(

Not ALL decisions (acceptations/rejections) since (according to this thread) some (if not most) people have already received decisions (offers) through their Camsis.
