Cambridge 2015 Postgraduate Entry

If you apply for more than one course (say MPhil in Finance, MPhil in Real Estate Finance and Diploma in Economics), would that disadvantage each of the applications?

Anyone know any specifics about the MPhil Economics at Cambridge? i.e. Teaching approach

Self-indulgent update: So after writing a proposal that the prospective supervisor was happy with, I put my application in early last week, just wanting to get everything off my plate so I could focus on getting on with my applications for other unis. I checked my Self-Service for the first time this morning and, lo and behold!, I got an offer! Already!?! :eek:

I'm shocked that it's come so quickly and delighted too. There's no college yet, or no funding, so it's a bit of a moot point, but I'm chuffed nonetheless! :biggrin:

Congrats

I've got a conditional offer also for a History MPhil, no college or funding though. History closed applications quite early so that may be why.

Well done! :smile:

Good luck, are you hoping to get funding? Did you have an interview?

Thanks! I am hoping to get funding, I think for o/s we won't know much until at least December, probably March. No interview needed for the MPhil, just for the PhD, I think.

Could anyone provide some guidance on how I could find out more information about funding available to UK students generally and maybe specifically for the MPhil in Finance and MPhil in Real Estate Finance?

The University offers guidance for potential scholarship applicants for the MPhil in Finance here: http://www.jbs.cam.ac.uk/programmes/research-programmes/research-mphils/mphil-finance/fees-financing/scholarships/

Hi everyone!

I've just received an invitation to interview for an M.Phil program, and I was wondering if anyone has any tips on what to prepare for? Or if anyone has had an interview, what I should be expecting?

Thank you!

Hi all!

Fellow applicant here. I'm currently studying Mathematics at Imperial, and applied for MAST in Applied Mathematics (PART III) and MPhil in Finance (Financial Engineering), applied quite early, a month ago I think. This wait is deadly, I want to hear back :frown:

Ooh, nice. Good luck. Well as it's research based you should have a good idea of your research interests, experience, etc. As well, think about your motivations to do the MPhil (e.g. as opposed to a PhD, or a taught master's, or something). Do you have to give a presentation during the interview? Are you interviewed by your supervisor? Who is your supervisor? :biggrin:
