Do any BCL applicants still have the button?

Is the button that is 'supposed' to be gone the self-service button or the one allowing submission of supporting docs?

Yup still have it. Anyone else?

I've been working off the assumption that it's the "Upload" button within the Supporting Documents page.

Hi guys, after a whole night of insomnia and existential crisis, just woke up to my BCL magic button no longer being there. Already have been unsuccessful with Cambridge LLM. 

Please tell me this is some sort of a good news. Don’t think I can take it anymore.

There is no harm in being hopeful. I know how it feels to be rejected. But at the same time, the fact that you have mustered the courage to apply for a programme like Oxford BCL speaks volumes about you. I really hope you don't get disheartened twice but even if it comes with a No, please remember that you have competed with the best of the best (of the world). Anyway, good luck!

BCL applicant here - Buttons still there 

So is the theory that if your button doesn't disappear at all then most likely you will get rejected but if your button does disappear then you will get accepted or rejected but more leaning towards accepted? If that makes sense?

I *think* the idea is that when your application has been processed the upload button disappears, and that acceptances are processed before rejections. So if your button disappears early it means your application has been processed early, hence it is probably an acceptance.

I think this theory is very dubious though. I know someone who got an offer 2 years ago on the Friday afternoon when loads on this forum had letters through on the Thursday, so I don't think they always process all acceptances first

Any more buttons disappearing for MJur applicants? Do they usually release BCL and MJur in the same instance or does one come before the other? 

My button is still there (Mjur applicant)...

I can't think about anything else. Hopefully Oxford put us all our of misery today...

Is there a Whatsapp group for BCL/MJur? Would be quicker to track acceptances and button disappearing. I've looked through and can only find a MFL one.

Maybe we just need to make one?
