I’ve heard that Oxford DPhil results will come out by the end of this week from the Law Faculty.
Anyone obtained Clarendon scholarship before for Oxford DPhil in law? Any selection criteria apart from those on the website already?

You can just check for DPhils in law on their own list of scholars per academic year: https://www.ox.ac.uk/clarendon/scholar-class-lists.
As for the second question, these things are generally not publicly available beyond what is stated on their own pages. Do the exact requirements matter, though? The Oxford Dphil application is a 600-word research proposal and writing sample with no personal statements or scholarship statements attached. Since all applicants are automatically considered with no additional info, the Clarendon is even more out of your control than other scholarship applications. You will just have to wait and see.

Are you still able to upload documents on your application portal?
Posted Mar 16, 2021 19:36
I think you can, but there's no guarantee they'll consider them.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I wanted to know if your "upload button" disappeared or not - if it did, it means that a decision on your application has been reached. I have heard that for many PhD in Law applicants the button disappeared today.

Oh yeah, that makes sense. My button is gone too. I applied for the MPhil, though, because it felt like the safer shot.
Unrelated question, anybody else found the 600 word limit on the research proposal to be unreasonably stringent?

Does anyone mind sharing what are their profiles like when they applied for the dphil?
Posted Mar 17, 2021 04:16
I don't remember how the profile looked like when I applied, but if I access my "supporting documents" page today, I can select "Transcript" and "English language test results" (where it says (or, probably in your case, said) "Please select") and press the button "Upload", which is still there in my case.

A first class on the LLB is mandatory and I have heard before you have to place in the top 5% as a minimum

I wouldn't worry too much about it. I don't think the success of the application will be determined by the graduation grade or class rank, but rather by the research project - considering that probably almost everyone who applies to Oxford graduated from top schools with honors (at least).

Has anyone gotten an offer yet?
Posted Mar 18, 2021 00:21
Nothing yet...
Posted Mar 18, 2021 01:48
Nothing yet. Anyone here relying on funding to pursue the DPhil?
Posted Mar 18, 2021 06:44
Me too, nothing yet

Someone I know got rejected for DPhil (Socio-Legal) — did anyone hear anything for DPhil (Law) ?
Posted Mar 19, 2021 13:18
I received an offer yesterday for the dphil in law. But my guess is that they are not done sending offers just yet
Posted Mar 19, 2021 16:27
Have any DPhil offers gone out today?
Posted Mar 19, 2021 19:57
Haven’t heard anything for DPhil in Law yet. Did anyone else get an offer?
Posted Mar 19, 2021 20:02
No haven’t heard anything...
