Re: King's College London Postgraduate Applications 2012/13(Original post by Akkuz)
65%. Problem is the 10% deposit..and I still haven't heard from Cambridge, UCL or Imperial
What can I do about this, besides email the other uni's and ask about my application..?
When is the deadline to reply and to pay? -
Re: King's College London Postgraduate Applications 2012/13I have 1 month to decide..(Original post by zziippoo)

Re: King's College London Postgraduate Applications 2012/13just wait for three more weeks. If you still haven't heard from the other unis, contact them and ask for an extension + contact the other unis and ask how it's going. I do think though that you will have heard by then, at least from UCL, they tend to be fairly fast.

Re: King's College London Postgraduate Applications 2012/13Yeah. The only worry is Christmas holidays etc. won't admissions offices shut or slow down for the holiday period?(Original post by Xristina)

Re: King's College London Postgraduate Applications 2012/13Don't really like the course at Imperial that much (but I do think I have a chance). I do feel I have a decent chance for ucl/cambridge..my grades this year are even higher than this year (so far) but I can't show the uni's that yet unfortunately.(Original post by zziippoo)
One month? and we have also Christmas holidays which are close.
Do you think that you have chances to have a place at Imperial/Cambridge? -
Re: King's College London Postgraduate Applications 2012/13true...but you can't do anything else.(Original post by Akkuz)

Re: King's College London Postgraduate Applications 2012/13I understand .. it is very difficult to decide .. make a decision based on the modules , fees, location , name.. if you feel that you have a lot of chances to have a place in other universities then reject its offer!!(Original post by Akkuz)

what did you apply at imperial? -
Re: King's College London Postgraduate Applications 2012/13Worst case..I'll pay the deposit, get a better offer and lose my deposit I guess..(Original post by zziippoo)

Transport with Business Management. It's an area I like, but perhaps a little too narrow for me, right now. -
Re: King's College London Postgraduate Applications 2012/13
Congrats, Akkuz!

When I needed a decision ASAP, UCL responded with an offer within a day; it really impressed me, to be honest.
I wouldn't know about Cambridge and Imperial, but I think it's worth calling/e-mailing them explaining that you've got a deadline on another offer - be sure to put in the 'but I'd rather come to your institution'
. Brown nosing gets you far in the world, I've found! Haha.

Please forgive! 
What does IPS stand for? Is King's your firm choice? AND, do you have to pay this stupid 10% deposit?
