Anyone heard back?

Anyway, have you tried sending any email to them?

Not yet, I've emailed the admissions team asking about when we will hear back about interviews and they've said we'll start hearing back from the 6th of Feb (tomorrow!). Good luck :smile:

Have you heard back?

No… if I don’t hear back by the end of today I think I’ll just assume I haven’t been shortlisted

For those who received invites, did the status of your application on the portal change?

Hi! I think as the BBSRC interviews are held over a longer period, they usually tell you a week before the interview. So, I wouldn't be discouraged! Then everyone has a week to prepare for their interview - rather than some people having one week and others having two.

Thanks great that means technically you can get invited next week for an interview in the last week of February as well I assume since interviews end on the 1st of March. Hopefully thats the case.

I just got the interview invite today, so they are definitely not sending all of the invites in one single day.

Congrats!
Was it an email or a phone call? and did they update it in your portal as well?

I received an email on my personal email address. They dont update your portal usually only when you receive the offer.

Thank you but I actually rejected the interview offer as I have already accepted an offer from a different Oxford program so they will be definitely adding someone from the wait list to be interviewed instead of me. Wishing you all the best!!!
