Hi Guys.

I just received a certificate of offer. Weirdly, I received no offer e-mail over the weekend and had written off Oxford. I checked my spam folder and everything but there's no offer email. And yet the certificate of offer carries my name?! Could there be a mistake by any chance? The self service portal ofc shows nothing beyond upload button disappearance.

Please help people, I'm afraid I'll celebrate prematurely and then get crushed.

Hi Guys.

I just received a certificate of offer. Weirdly, I received no offer e-mail over the weekend and had written off Oxford (specially given I got reject by Cambridge too lol)?!?!

There have been a few people who have gotten offers today, and it seems you are one of them! I really don't think they would make a mistake - but if you want, maybe respond over email and ask them to confirm.

With that being said ... CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

Told ya :D



Hi, I think more offers will come (plus the waiting list)




thanks Miki, just out of curiosity do you think not getting an offer today means it’s more likely than not to be a rejection come Monday? I thought offers may come over a couple of days. But now not so sure. 

A message from an alumni:

to those who have got offers: well done!

to those who did not get offers this time: do not be discouraged! Applying is a success in itself and these courses are insanely competitive; very often even really good candidates receive rejections. Try again next time using the experience from this application cycle!

@SG2503, did you write to anyone for confirmation? Or do you know for certain this isn't an error.

Nope, not so far, but I am planning to send an email tomorrow for confirmation. 

Any idea as to should I reply to the offer email itself or send it to some specific person?

Is anyone else starting to get horrific levels of anxiety they won't make the academic conditions and graduate with a First? Friends going to LSE etc have minimum requirements of 65 and I'm here having meltdowns because it would just be awful having worked my socks off for years for the Oxbridge offers and then mess everything up in my finals :(

Same thing happened to me and don't worry you are good! Go ahead with the celebrations. 
I was surprised to see my offer certificate in my inbox unaccompanied by an "offer letter is to come" email, so I panicked and emailed Marianne (BCL Contact person). 
Apparently they missed a few names on their list when sending out offers on the 17th!
Congratulations!

Did you make contact with your supervisor for the DPhil prior to applying? 

Could your share your profile.

Congratulations!

Hello all! My heart so goes out to all who have have a difficult go (this time--I was a multiple-time applicant in American law schools, still didn't get my top choice, and I in retrospect wouldn't change a single thing!). I'm curious if anyone has thoughts on this spread-- I was accepted to the DPhil program (law) and rejected from the MPhil and BCL. I was somewhat surprised, as I would have thought the DPhil would be harder. Has anyone have an experience like this/any insights? I am of course not complaining, I'm incredibly grateful, but I'm wondering if I must have been like the lowest accepted candidate for the DPhil given my other results. Thank you my friends for indulging my crippling anxiety!


I did not make contact with a specific supervisor--I reached out to a faculty member being like "do you know of any faculty members whose interests would align with mine" but that was it (I was too shy haha). In terms of profile, I'm about to graduate from an American law school (one of the top 3, about top third of my class), interesting but not spectacular extra curriculars, one publication but not in an academic journal. I do think my proposal was a strong point of my application, so @Shahenshah's comment would make sense!

I am not sure if the admissions teams for the courses coordinate/inform the other teams as to applications to multiple courses by the same candidate, and would appreciate some information on how Oxbridge address such cases, but I would just like to say Zabciamala that you're clearly a great applicant as you've been offered a place on the DPhil! Clearly the DPhil is more suited to your academic trajectory than the MPhil or BCL and it may just be because your application was actually of a higher standard or indeed specific enough to warrant sustained academic research. 


This is very kind of you, thank you! 1f642 I do think it's possible my research proposal was the difference, as it's something I'm really excited about/is new in the field.
