It will be a long time! Is it around March time before we'll hear?

Hey, folks.

James here. I've applied to read the LL.M. at Cambridge and the BCL at Oxford. To those of you who have done the same, I wish you all the best with getting admitted.

Hi everyone,

I guess it's just keep our fingers crossed for a few months (I hate waiting!)

So what are everyone's motivations for going for the BCL and LLM? Anyone have a particular preference for either (if lucky enough to get an offer from both!)?

Hi everyone

I applied both oxbridge at the end of September from Turkey. Anyone heard any news? When are we going to be informed? Apparently, in March, but i am of the opinion those applied early get informed early? Any idea?

Best luck for everyone
Regards,

It does not matter whether your application was received the first of september or december. Offers start being made in March and continue until mid-April.
As for the colleges, I believe that Trinity does not have LL.M.'s or that's what I've been told by my mates here.
Good luck to everyone

Hi,

From what I gather, Ox will assess/make offers once all applications have been submitted and so after the prescribed deadline. Although, I have been told that the earlier you put your application in, the earlier you will hear. It gives them the opportunity to engage in advance preparatory work so that once they get round to assessing your application it won't take as long.

What did everyone decide to put in as written work for Oxford?

I'm keeping it under 6 pages. Did you include the number of words in the essay?

Mine is more of a balance, but its really difficult at this level to propound something like a new theory, which most probably wouldn't be convincing. I'm heavy on footnotes too.
