MA in Publishing at UCL - HELP!

oh man finally! GOOD LUCK TO YOU! ahhh so nervous!!!!!

Hi Guys!
I thought I would let those of you who are anxiously awaiting emails or status changes on portico know that on Thursday the 28th after almost 5 weeks of agonizing silence on both fronts I rang the admissions dept to ask them about information concerning my application and I was told that an unconditional offer had been made and that the offer letter was sent in the post the day before. This took me by surprise as my status on portico had been 'being processed by admissions' since the Monday and yet contrary to some of the people here who received responses within 1-2 days of that status change I had still not received any response. So basically if you're still waiting and haven't had any updates for a while particularly if you're status is 'being processed by admissions' then my best advice is to simply ring the admissions dept, as nerve wrecking as I know that may be because my status only eventually changed on Sunday almost a week after the intial status change. I also haven’t received any e-mails since my second reference was submitted back in Feb.
Good luck to you all!

Unsuccessful.
Took them 4 1/2 month to figure that out! Just got an email about the status change, guess they are working through the night, or something.

Well, I expected that much. Have an offer from Oxford for a different program (not economics), so I guess it is a sign!

Hopefully you haven't gone yet, but yes, it's pretty simple. They also ask what you see for the future of publishing. If you have gone, how was it?

Got an offer from Bartlett UCL for Msc Construction Economics&Management after an interview.

The thing is they ask me for certain overall mark in my degree, but as I am a final year student most of this overall mark is determined by previous years marks. In fact even getting the highest marks this year I wouldn't be able to meet their condition

Are you studying in the UK?

If you're studying in a different country, they might not be aware of this. I think this happened to an American guy last year and it was ok in the end.

Hi all,

I received what appears to be an unofficial offer on the 22nd of March from the Bartlett via email, but as of yet the status of my application on portico remains 'application complete.'

I was wondering whether the Registry could still reject my application and approximately when I should receive a final response-when do they start processing applications after the Easter break?

Yes. I am studying in Spain at the moment, so maybe they are unaware of the fact that my overall mark is already very settled, The Final degree project I am doing is just 25% of the grade when I know from my own experience similar modules are worth up to 50% of the overall mark at UK architecture schools.

This might well be the case, I'd give them a ring as soon as possible.

I doubt they would have given you an offer if they thought that your application and your results weren't good enough.

I have lived in Britain for a year already so I'm familiar with british character... is it alright if I write them explaining the matter? Won't they think I'm trying to underperfom or anything? I suppose it all depends of being tactful...
