Hi everyone !

So far - I have only heard from :
- QMUL, got accepted two weeks ago- but I have to answer within one month ...
- LSE, got rejected very quickly

Like some of you here, I am still waiting for KCL !!
Due to their technical difficulties, I had to send them back the documents on the 1st of november. The only update I have received concern the assessment of my documents.
On their website, they explain that it takes around 4 weeks - 6 weeks.
It is very frustrating.

Congratulations for QMUL.
But has LSE started issuing decisions? when did u submit ur application?

Hi guys!

My application status on UCL Portico changed this morning from "Your references have been received and your application is being assessed" to "Currently being processed by Admissions". Does anyone know what it means? Does it mean I'll hear back from them soon?

EDIT: Conditional Offer! :)

Not yet. When did you apply for UCL?

I sent my application on the 26th of October, and UCL received my references on the 31st of October. My status changed yesterday from "Your references have been received and your application is being assessed" to "Currently being processed by Admissions", and when I checked Portico past Midnight UK time, my conditional offer appeared! :-)

I sent mine last week! Let's hope they have a decision asap.

I am applying to KCL but in employment details section I should determine an end date to be saved .. what to do for current work for me ?!

Nope, not yet! I became an 'applicant in progress' on the 10th November. QMUL replied very quickly (11th Nov) and UCL I've still yet to hear from, which is frustrating when I only have 4 weeks to reply to QMUL!

Everyone, any news from KCL ?!
i's been ages !!

Nope... Last year apparently they were the quickest to give responses... Now it seems that they are the slowest :-/

You do not have any obligation in case u accept an offer. Why do you hesitate?

Has anyone considered writing to KCL and explained them that we had an offer from QMUL and it's starting to be very urgent .... ?

I quote QMUL :

"Once we have offered you a place on a programme of study or research, setting out any conditions associated with the offer, and you have accepted it, you have entered into a legally binding agreement with QMUL. If you want to withdraw from this agreement and cancel your acceptance of an offer, you must notify us within 14 days of the date that you accepted the offer:

For applicants applying to us through UCAS, this means 14 days from the date that you accepted the offer as your Firm or Insurance choice in UCAS Track.
For applicants applying directly to QMUL, this means 14 days from the date when you accepted your offer in your online portal.
You must let us know in writing of your decision to cancel the acceptance of your offer. Once you have done this, your offer of a place on the programme will be withdrawn".

They don't give further details in case you want to withdraw after these 14 days ...
I suppose the offer is binding ...
