LSE MPhil/ PhD 2024/2025

Wish you all the best!

Would you mind sharing how long did you wait for the interview invitation?

I applied on December 1st and I received the invitation in mid-January, so around 6 weeks (Christmas holidays included).

Hi everyone, starting this discussion as I have not seen any thread discussing about MPhil/PhD applications at LSE for 2024 intake in both The Student Room and Reddit :/

May I know if anyone applied and have gotten back answers? I have mostly seen people who applied to MSc getting their results back but not MPhil.

Thank you!

~ p/s: I applied for MPhil/PhD Social Policy on 15 Jan 2024. My documents status changed to "received - not verified" on Thursday, 18 Jan 2024.

also social policy. i’ve been waiting ages. would love to know whether anyone else heard back about an interview for that program so i can stop stressing and move on with my life if i didn’t get one 🤣

Haha as far as i know social policy doesnt have interviews. It's stated in the couse info page. But am not sure if they changed the requirements! Did you apply Mphil/phd or Phd straight?

My info is that second choices are considered ONLY when the decision on first choice is made and if the candidate is rejected for the first choice

Hey! I just got news on my application for a MPhil/PhD in Law. I'm currently in a waiting of 6 persons in total. Did anybody else have any news? Do you think there'll be any rejections by offer holders?

For those who got a PhD offer, did they provide funding info? Can’t see to figure it out.
