LSE 2016 Postgraduate Application/Offer Thread

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the 38 week contract is a major issue for PG's, because the summer is solely independent with dissertation writing. By the time the 38 week contract ends, the exams and lectures will have finished.

Personally, I plan on moving back home after the 38 week contract ends and submit my dissertation the following September.

I'm not sure it's necessary to stay in London throughout the summer months during my dissertation writing. I could contact lecturers via e-mail if needed.

Of course, circumstances differ depending on the degree and the individual.

Hi guys, I have just received a conditional offer for Human Resource & Organisation!
Need to send them proof of degree & transcript though... does it mean that the offer will change to unconditional automatically once they have received my documents/proof?
Thanks!

And anyone applied for the HR programme also?

yeah it will do. Have you completed your undergraduate degree?

Hi Tom, thanks for your prompt reply.
Yes several years ago actually, and met the minimum 2:1 requirement.

It means that you are pretty much guaranteed to get accepted for your second choice programme, and you can enrol on that one instead. LSE is so bloated with MSc programmes, you can take the same set of courses under multiple degree titles, hence them not going to care it's the first choice degree title in your statement.

Hiiiiiii everyone - just popping in to say I received an offer for MSc Political Economy of Late Development (seems there are a few of us!). But I won't be accepting it!

I applied a while back - but rejected from first choice on 10 December. So pretty much exactly two months.

offer from cambridge

Lol alright mate. Had it occurred to you I've thought this through and made the best decision for me?

Hello LSE applicants!

Today I could no longer wait to know the outcome of my application. So I contacted graduate admissions, I was told that a decision has been made but it needs to be authorised and processed! I'm confused as I thought decision are supposed to be shown automatically on tracker. Bad news guys or just standard procedure?

Just got an unconditional offer for MSc Public Management and Governance.

I submitted my application on January 5th, last reference came in on January 15th, and my application was acknowledged as complete on Feb 2nd.

Now on to the issue of funding...

Any others here who are gunning for the same program?

Woah, this is like getting an offer in less than 2 weeks. Congratulation!!

But congrats! I hope we can be colleagues in the next year!
