Oxford Postgraduate Offer Holders 2024

Has anyone been declined a place for their first choice college//pooled? I was offered funding but no word from any college for about 5 weeks now

What kind of funding were you offered, if I may ask?

Got an offer for English DPhil a week ago, offer from Queen's came through two days later! No word on funding - I asked the admissions team but they just directed me to the general timeline, which states applicants will hear back between Feb - June. However, I have seen some other humanities DPhil offer holders informed that they were put forward for funding. Has anyone heard about nominations for OOC/AHRC or Clarendon? Or know when applicants normally hear back for these scholarships? Thanks!!

Congrats! Was Queen's your first choice? I am still waiting on info regarding scholarships too for DPhil Modern Languages, have reached out to my department about it but no word yet.

Thank you!! and congrats to you too! Yes - Queen's was my first choice have you been assigned college yet? And would you mind sharing the email your department send back? I'm desperate to know a rough timeline for these funding schemes... I can't do the DPhil without it :')

Amazing! And yes, Queen's too! If you want I can DM you? I am in the same boat, totally relying on funding.

I'm in the same situation! MPhil applicant instead of DPhil, and I've been offered a place in my first choice college. But yeah, totally reliant on a funding offer within the next 6 weeks or so in order to attend.

Congratulations for getting this far! You said Trinity, right? It's a beautiful college Fingers crossed for us both

Yeah, Trinity. I'm currently on the waitlist for the Ertegun Scholarship... if someone declines their offer then I can get funding through there. Sigh. I highly doubt that will happen, but I talked to my DGS and she said it actually happens every single year? So yeah, a waiting game.

I just got a college offer from Magdalen. It came one week after my university offer, if that's helpful for anyone to know!

Congrats! How is your funding?

I applied with external funding, so I have funding but its not college associated.

I received DPhil Biology offer mid Jan, got rejected by Magdalen, and haven't heard about another college or funding yet
