@seriouslylaw18: May I ask when you submitted your application?

Guys my transcript dropped to the bottom about 6-7 days back. However, I have not received anything. Maybe LSE has changed the system and transcript drop is normal? I applied in oct end.

Hi guys!

Is anyone acquainted with the theory of dropping transcripts? According to applicants from last year, whoever's transcript fell below their references - received offers in January. Does anyone know if this theory is true? How does it look in your case? 

The order shall thus be like: Administration fee - Passed Check

Statement of academic purpose - Received

CV / Resume - Received

First reference - Passed Check 

Second reference - Passed Check 

Transcript Copy  - Received



Thanks for your help!

yes, this is how my documents look like now. It chnaged a few days ago :) 

 

Same here, my transcript dropped at the end of November, hoping it's a good sign! I applied mid October. 

@Whooops according to last years thread LSE starts making offers in January, and applicants whose transcripts dropped in December seemed to all get offers come January. And this was also true for applicants who applied later in the application cycle, a lot of people last year said that their transcripts dropped in January, and they later received offers. However, it's just a theory, it is very possible it doesn't mean anything, and could just be normal like you said :)

Most of the offers last year came after 8-10 days of transcript drop. Is there anyone who has received the offer yet?

Hi everyone, I applied Nov 11th, got my ID Nov 12th and my transcripts dropped yesterday. I don't know whether the theory is true but fingers crossed. :)

Will the uni be closed for Christmas/NY? I read somewhere that Uni offices will be shut from Dec 25 to Jan 3, but maybe that was some other institute.

I received an offer today :) Looks like the transcript drop theory holds true as my transcript dropped at the end of November. Good luck to everyone else!

Hi! Congratulations!

I checked my Lseforyou account and it says they made an offer to me on 16th. Strangely enough, I have received an email for scholarship applications - but no offer email, not even in spam/junk. Lseforyou says if this is the case, then enter a new address, which I did. But I don't know how long I'll have to wait to receive my offer.

Is anyone else facing this?

I received an offer yesterday. Transcript drop theory is indeed true. Good luck to all those who applied!

Hello.

Does anyone know where on the LSE For You Platform I can track my application? (And check my supporting documents according to the transcript drop theory described above)

I applied during the week-end and received my ID today.

The transcript drop theory appears to be true! I got my offer yesterday, 10 days after my transcript drop. Good luck to everyone else!

I am in the exact situation! I think I will wait a while before changing my email first incase a lot of people are facing this

Hey guys, have any PhD applicants heard word/ seen a transcript drop? 

Does it make sense to still apply? If I apply by 31st December, considering its rolling admissions!

Were you all able to sort this out? I just saw an unconditional offer on the portal today (transcript dropped on 15th). But haven't got the official email even though they have said it's been sent.

Hi, yes!
I was panicking so I changed my email address immediately - but gave the same address again. This happened in the morning around 11. By 5 PM I received the offer email.
Seems like a lot of people are facing this issue - don't worry, it'll get sorted!
