Just got the email from Marianne Biese... also a rejection (MJur)...!
Somehow broken-hearted, but must confess it is also a big relief to finally have an answer!
Now waiting for Cam's LLM decision... if that miracle doesn't happen either, will gladly be taking place in UCL.
Good luck to you all!

Got rejected too, heartbroken
Hope that no one else is receiving email today from Oxford, as you probably cannot get anything good from there.

Rejected from MJur too.
Suprisingly, I'm relieved instead of sad. I wanted to get that over with.

If I havent received an email today does that mean I am not being rejected by the MJur?
I hope someone can say something to make me feel better. I am jumping out of my seat every time my Blackberry goes off.
Thus far, I have offers from the Oxford MSc Criminology and Criminal Justice, Cambridge LLM, LSE and UCL but none of these matter to me as much as the Oxford BCL -- it would be a dream come true.
Any guidance on what/anything to expect from anyone who has any insight would be appreciated. I fear I am just heading for a rejection email...!!!

I fear the mails are still coming. Another rejection here (MJur)...
Posted Mar 12, 2012 15:59
Just got rejected by email..
For those interested, I got top 10%, international moots, publications, judge clerkship, and good referees.
It is darn hard! Good luck to those still waiting.
BCL. Rejected. I think its a very tough call this time.
I had 72% marks..Top10% of the class. Won a couple of International Moots, Honourable Mention in one, International Publications, Hague Academy of International Law Scholarship Awardee, Shortlisted for Rhodes Scholarship 2012 (preliminary interview) India Rounds!
Still a no!! All the best guys :-) I hope some of you get through!!

I was top 5% with 3.88 GPA out of 4.00, TOEFL 116, best law school in my country, 0 years of working experience (though 4 as a legal assistant during law school). President of the student's association, founded a faculty monthly newspaper and did countless stuff as president. Published a book, and founder of several NGO's, and am also in the board of advisors of several traditional NGO's and a think-tank. Rejected.

just got waitlisted for the msc in law and finance..now thats a new species in this post. nyone else with a waitlisting?
Posted Mar 12, 2012 16:13
Waitlisted for MSc Law and Finance - not holding my breath!
Posted Mar 12, 2012 16:19
Rejected, Mjur.
But thanks to all those who posted about their background and academic achievements. As heartbreaking as the rejection is, it is somehow comforting to know that those with even better credentials than I were also passed over... At least I can say I'm in good company.

Rejected as well, from Singapore (BCL). I was expecting it, so it's all good :)

No wonder American universities do much better in all rankings - they do attract the best students and they are more wise as to actually admit them.

Got rejected today... No MJur offer for me... Although I've already got an offer for MFL and for Cambridge LLM... I think the selection process is combined... Got no offer for Cambridge MCL, so I believe it is someway combined...

Oh no, sorry to hear about the rejections. I hope you can move on, however tough that may seem right now. There are other schools, other things than postgraduate legal education and yes, other things than law.
All the best for you and best of luck for those still waiting to hear back!

Got rejected, too. I am disappointed, however, I think it is supposed to be this way and another LLM programme is more apt for me and my career.
