LSE entry 2015

Yeah, I sent my application the 1st of October. Had an email from UCL on the 3rd of October giving me a log in to their portal. I recieved an email from LSE on the 6th of October saying that they had recieved my application and would get back to me within two weeks, I just had an email today saying that they have begun to look over my PS (I assume this means my grades are acceptable?) which should take about 2 weeks.

No I haven't started any TSA prep. Thought I might do a practice today? How about you? Which college are you applying to?

So, hi!
I submitted my UCAS application on the 10th of October, got an acknowledgement yesterday, and today have received the 'reviewing details and personal statement, get back to you in two weeks' email.

What exactly does this mean? Is it sent out to everyone, or have I crossed the first barrier, haha?

I'm sorry to butt in on your conversation, I'm an international student, and it is absooolutely killing me!

Has anyone applying for straight economics received the eight week email?

about a week, but it may be sooner.

oh great, thanks, i'm really worried about it!

about a week agooo, week ago

The fact that they are reviewing the stuff you sent them implies that this is the first stage - they cannot accept or reject without doing this

I get that, but it wouldn't mean much if everyone gets the email, would it?
Thanks for your reply, anyway!

I want to send my application off for economics do I have to put my ums down or do they send a questionnaire.

They send a questionnaire.

Has anyone been sent a questionnaire asking for ums yet? Because I can't see anywhere on there acknowledgment email or website that they ask for ums so am a bit confused

What they did last year was once you were past the 1st stage of selection (LSE have many stages), they sent out a questionnaire requesting UMS from the selected batch of students.

You guys are so hopeful. But will soon find out it is a much longer process. There's like at least a thousand of 'equally qualified you' for 100 places. LSE does not make offers to the first 100 who qualifies, lol. The 1000 is whittled down to 500 strong candidates, say, then further down to 250, who then get offers. Don't get too excited. There are more emails to come.
