Failed to meet the conditional offer

I was given a conditional offer,
but I have failed to meet it.
What should I do right now?
Do I still have a chance to get into LSE?
Do u know anyone who had the same experience as me?

No-one on TSR will be able to tell you what your chances are, your best bet would be to contact LSE directly.

If you have your results on you, contact the uni immediately and they should tell you

Even if you fail to meet your conditions, you can still send your results, and the selectors will consider whether your offer can be confirmed. (It is stated in the graduate offer pack that you are supposed to have received by mail! :wink:

No. It is extremely unlikely that a university will confirm offers to candidates that have failed to meet the requirements before A-level results have been published.

Actually, I am an international applicant,
and I think I don't have any chance left,
unless my remarking is successful.
I am so hopeless right now,
and my insurance has already rejected me :frown:

Frankly, I did really think of killing myself,
and if the remarking is unsuccessful,
I don't know what to do next :frown:

I'm in the same boat and my unis said they can't give me an answer until A levels come out.

My case is even worse,
if the remarking is unsuccessful,
my application will be withdrawn instantly :frown:

Oh no! What program are you doing? I just found out that I can't even get my stuff remarked because it would go to the same examiner! Aka no point!

I have applied for Management.
Actually the success rate of remarking is just 5%,
and as I need to remark 3 subjects,
my success rate is even lower....
I am hopeless right now :frown:

I really need a miracle :frown:

You can write a so-called argue letter to state the reason that they should give you the offer even though you did not meet the academic requirement. I have wrote the letter last year and finally get admitted.
Do not lose hope and move on :smile:

Sure.
Last year I failed to fulfill the academic condition which is 85% required by LSE and I finally got an 84.8%. They sent me the Email and said that I did not fulfill the condition(They are really strict even though it was minor difference).
I wrote the Email, stated that what I did to compensate my bad results in my first year. I got all 90% average in the subsequent three years in university and I really did a lot to achieve my dream school. My results showed a definite upward trend. Finally they offered me the unconditional place.
The key is to state although you did not fulfill the requirement, you did take actions to progress and showed motivations to the school.
Hope this helps. :smile:
