Scratch the above. Rejected.

Ah well :biggrin: I'm pretty sure it was the reputation of my uni and one average module mark. I had excellent references and PS.

In case anyone is wondering, I applied 4 weeks ago, and the status changed on Portico. I haven't got an e-mail about it yet.

Good luck to all!

I really doubt that. I come from a really bad uni and it didn't affect me in any way.
I am really sorry you were rejected though. Good luck with the rest of your applications.

Thanks :tongue: I guess we will never know! I'm not going to ask them for feedback, not all that bothered. I applied to 5 uni's because I knew I'd get rejections from a few.

I should probably withdraw my Imperial application, but I can't be bothered :colondollar:

No, don't. I was reading a while ago about someone who submitted applications to some huge amount (20 or 30) US universities. All but one rejected her. The one who accepted her was Harvard... you just never know about these things.

Really? haha, that's quite a story! I already have another offer. Don't want to go Imperial. I'll just leave it anyway..

That'd be an interesting predicament. If they gave me funding, I'd defer KCL entry, study at Imperial for free for a year then go the KCL masters. Is that even possible?

I do know Imperial have quite a lot of funding for the course I applied for.

Yea I had my interview with her too.. stumbled a bit on a few questions.

She asked me how would i invest 1 million dollars if i had it, how will i use my undergrad in the next 5-10 years, how have i been preparing for a career in management... and a few other questions related to why UCL, don't remember exactly! Pretty simple stuff :smile:


Have you heard the decision from them already? How long does it take to know the decision after the interview?

I still haven't done mine....

Museum Studies.

I was kind of expecting it - I heard that they want people who've done loads of work experience, whereas mine was rather limited. Still, it's never nice being rejected.
