Nope, nothing :frown: I think we should prepare ourselves to wait for a good two weeks or so...

Much like a lot of people here, I've also received the "five weeks" email from LSE a couple weeks back. I've heard that LSE is notoriously slow in letting applicants know about their offers/rejections, although some have already gotten them. The email says "up to five weeks," but does anyone know if it actually does take five weeks or less, or do they wait until longer?



6 weeks for me

Took me 8 weeks before i received this email:

I am writing with further information on your application to study at LSE.

I am pleased to tell you that, following a thorough assessment of your application, our Admissions Selector has decided that your application is among the strongest in this admissions cycle.

When assessing a high calibre application such as yours, we need a little more time to assess you against other candidates in your cohort. This can take approximately four weeks, and we will have a final decision on your application as soon as possible.
I applied in Government. I got my conditional offer today, nearly four weeks after getting the "consideration" email, which said it could take up to seven weeks.

LSE were very prompt with me. Their decisions were on the day they said they would reply (plus or minus one day).

I applied for IR as well. I got my offer 5 and a half weeks after the 5 week email. So basically on time.
