Oxford DPhil Education 2024

When we applied (5th January deadline) it said that 'The outcome of your application will be emailed to you around 8-10 weeks after the deadline'. We're now in week 9.

My button disappeared today as well. Usually that means results come out tomorrow UK time. I have not been interviewed so I am not hopeful at all but good luck to all!!!!!!!

For my previous applications, results were usually out in the early PM. Button disappearance means a decision has been reached - it's not necessarily bad or good. In all my 3 times applying, the button disappeared one day before results were communicated to me via email (2 were acceptances and 1 was rejection).

What button are you referring to? Is it in the self-service portal? I don't see any upload buttons there and I am also still waiting for the decision...

Its a sort of roundabout way of telling when they are close to making a decision. If you go on your application page and look for the support documents button, click on it. If the option to upload a new document has disappeared, its likely you will hear back in a day or so. If it hasn't disappeared (meaning you can still upload new documents), you'll have to wait a bit longer

Hope this helped

I see, thanks for explaining! The option to upload a new document isn't there but I still haven't heard from anyone...

Just checked the portal. My application was unsuccessful. Good luck to the rest of you!

Also a rejection for me. What a shame but let's all rejoice over the thought of rejections as redirections. Best of luck to you on your other trajectories and best of luck to others as well! We all got this.

That is very kind of you to say and a great way for us to move forward. I was admitted into the Cambridge program, but I'm still waiting to hear about funding. If that doesn't work out, I'll reapply, expand my horizons to other schools, and apply for external funding.
