    I guess of course they would, if they haven't replied you yet it most definitely means that they haven't taken a decision yet, however you won't lose something by calling them and ask them if they have taken a decision yet but they somehow forgot to inform you.

    Hi spairos,

    Thanks for the suggestion.

    Currently, I am waiting for their reply and I am in the 3rd week of waiting.

    I seen a lot of people in TSR getting offers on the 2nd week after they submitted their applications.

    I am not sure whether is it they submitted during Jan to March period? Maybe it's non peak period. :dontknow:

    Unrelated first degree means that you somehow eventually changed your mind towards the subjects that you like (I assume so).
    So since you have already graduated, in what terms is the offer a conditional one?

    No problem there,
    if you can't wait anymore just give them a call,
    however you most definitely get an answer in 1-2 weeks the most, I guess so.

    I received an email from them last night...


    I am delighted to inform you that the programme’s Admissions Panel has made a recommendation to the University’s Postgraduate Admissions Office for admission to the programme. Please note that this is not an official offer - all departmental recommendations are subject to formal verification and approval by the University. You will normally receive official notification of the University’s final decision by email within 4 weeks.


    i hope I can get an offer from them..

    I waited one week (in total) for my offer, but it depends on the programme, period of time and many other parameters, so you can't judge from just one person.

    I can't reveal how I got scholarship, because I just got one
    (they had sent me a mail letting me know)

    Best Regards
