Hey!
Since the Cantab thread has already started, I think it's time for Oxonians-in-spe to join TSR. I have decided to apply for Law DPhil and MILF :biggrin: (yes, I know they skip the 'i' for obvious reasons) this year. So... Let the games begin.

Did any of you, guys, manage to discover how to create a multiple application? I intend to apply for three degrees, the application guide tells about submitting multiple application, as well as the technical FAQ, but I can't deal with that.

Please don't do this. I know oxford and cambridge have their traditions, but using the latin version of the names is really pretentious, especially on an internet forum. I'm sure you're super-excited to apply to oxbridge, but there's a real world out there, not all of whom speak latin.

When you click 'start new' application in the embark system it gives an option to choose which number application you'd like to work on. If you're applying for more than one, choose 1, fill that out, click 'start new' then choose '2', etc.

Thanks a lot, it appears I have been using wrong browser - i can't manage multiple applications at Chrome, but it showed up while using Safari.


indiap, sorry for using Latin words, if it bothers you THAT much. I thought it may also function as a normal adjective.

I'm enrolled on the MSc in Migration Studies due to start this October. If anyone has any questions on the course or on my college, Green Templeton (postgrad-only), after I've started, then do feel free to ask.

FWIW, back in the States, "Cantab" was a much-beloved slur used to refer to a "student" at "Harvard University" among Yale students; don't know if that's a thing in this case (though it really should be if it isn't.)

I was on Chrome when I tried it out :/ Oh well, best to just use Safari for you if you're having problems.

MPhil Comparative Government.

I have a question. I want to apply for ESRC funding as well. Do I need to supply a research proposal as an additional document alongside the statement of purpose?

I have emailed a few professors and hope they get back to me soon.
I'm applying for a DPhil in theoretical computer science (and I'm a current student -- about to go into fourth year -- in mathematics and compsci)!

BTW "Oxonian" is generally used to refer to people and things from/relating to Oxford as a city and a university, and is quite normal and not really seen as pretentious in my experience (it's the equivalent of 'Londoner' for someone from London, or 'Bristolian' for someone from Bristol). I'm not as familiar with Cambridge but I think it's similar there too!

It's true that it's easy to get a bit pretentious when talking about Oxbridge matters, but I think you're in the clear on this one :wink:

Hey everyone! :smile: I'm applying for MPhil in Greek and/or Latin Languages and Literature in January -- good luck to everyone :smile:
I'm applying to MSt English (1900-Present). Bit worried as I'm not an English undergrad.
