Hey,

I got an email from Ms. Wade too - regarding my references - they had not receieved them - even though I sent them in october.........my file was only forwarded to the committee on friday.

So I guess there may still be a couple of weeks to wait for decision.

I can't wait sending email to Ms Wiese this morning, and got reply just now. I AM IN! What a torture about all the waiting!
I guess this time they send the paper offer but no email notice. so if you wanna know the final result, better to ask Ms. Wiese.

Ah, commiserations to all those who have received rejections- since Cambridge haven't really released rejections yet, or don't, this is the firstbad news period the thread has had and it is lasting far too long!

Congratulations to anyone who has had good news, and to the lady or gent who expects a place at first or second choice college, I wouldn't hold your breath. More often than not, students get placed in colleges that weren't on their selection- grad colleges, modern colleges etc- and I'd imagine this would be particularly true when they feature in one of the last courses to send papers through to college selection. I'm not saying it wont happen, but it is a longshot when you pick two colleges which are bound to be oversubscribed.

Jags, I've held out this far. I am hoping for something through the post today but I have to say, on the evidence of so far, I wouldn't be surprised if these letters haven't even gone out yet! lol. Fingers crossed!

My thoughts entirely. If letters were being sent out Mon and Tues I would expect at least a clutch of UK applicants to have received their letters by now. Somehow I suspect similarly- they haven't even been dispatched yet. Not one person has reported having received a letter in the post yet, and many people in the UK will have had their post come already today.

I live in the border region betwen England and Scotland and the mail doesn't reach here until sometimes as late as 2pm- infuriating on days like today where you are waiting for things which others get before breakfast. Anyway, I know a few UK applicants have emailed already so the letter is somewhat irrelevant to them- which maybe offers a slight explanation- but if I don't get anything in todays post, maybe I'll snap and have to email. I shall let you know when the post arrives...

No post today for me (in the UK) so I decided to email! My application has been successful! S_Dimelow, I'd recommend taking the plunge too!

Oh dear... things are getting complicated! In a very good way!

Today it's a national holiday here.. so there is no post - but even if there were, one should consider that if the envelope had been posted on Monday, it would need at least one week to reach my country...
At any rate I decided to be patient, which is a virtue, and wait for the postman to deliver the envelope...

And I am also waiting a decision by Cambridge...

Thus, I am considering to ask my doctor to prescribe pills.. :-/

Congratulations to all who have been offered a place on the BCL.

Tigerland, so you couldn't wait all the way!!!

S_Dimelow, are you going to be the lone one or have you already followed Tigerland's advice?


I received my offer letter at 14 30 UK time- bloody postal system! I have to admit though, after seeing the Tigerland's post I buckled into the pressure and emailed Marianne-seeing as it appeared as if I was the only one left- and she graciously replied.

Well, well. Decisions to be made! Congrats to everyone who has been accepted to both, or either- a fantastic achievement. Anyone that has had bad news, commiserations again. Remember, you might have hated it anyway and you'll probably have a much better time whereever you end up..hopefully, anyway!

Congrats S. ! Interesting to see the post comes even later than here.. I didn't think that was possible.

Anyway, I am in too (Magister Juris).

To everyone still waiting: best of luck !
