KCL Postgraduate Applicants/Offer Holders 2015 entry

When did you apply?? Congrats btw!!!

Finally my references have been accepted, but my proposal is still marked "not yet reviewed".

I got accepted for MA Political Economy and MA International Political Economy. Anybody else here?

Congrats, I have been accepted for MA IPE as well. Does anyone know how good the accommodation in Kings is?

Congrats to you as well! I think I'll accept the IPE-offer. I was considering to stay in halls, but I've no idea whether they are good or bad, anyone?

Hi,
I applied for MSc Political Economy of the Emerging Markets on Dec 5. The application status changed to "Received and being processed" last week. I read some posts, people saying their application only took 4 weeks.
I don't know why mine took so long. Is it a bad sign?

Hi there,
I sure hope not! I sent in mine on 29th dec which was during their 2 week christmas/New Years break and my status is the same as yours.

I have sent them a message through the portal hoping for an answer.

MSc International Relations offer holder here.

Does anybody know about funding for EU-citizens at KCL? I just found one bursary, which is just 500 pound (one-time payment). Is it really possible that there are no other opportunities?

Tbh funding at KCL is a bit rubbish compared to other Russell Group unis...

Yes that's true... I mean 500 pounds......

OMG! That's so exciting, congratulations! I applied for the same program on january 15th, but all of my documents still state "not yet reviewed". Fingers crossed though!

Three weeks of rent.

Ask your supervisor if he knows sth about bursaries offered by the department.

Three weeks of rent indeed! ;-)
I hope that it is not a stupid question, but how do I find out, who my supervisor is?

Don't you have to write a thesis for your Master? I've applied for a PhD so it's a requirement for me to contact prospective supervisors first, but masters students are probably allocated to their supervisors later.
If you already know what your thesis will be about, look at the faculty's research interests there: http://www.kcl.ac.uk/prospectus/department/department-of-european-amp-international-studies/researchinterests
If you find one that perfectly matches your interests, you can email him telling your subject and asking about bursaries (keep it short, academics are busy people).
Otherwise, you can ask the head of the department, telling her that you're worried about bursaries: http://www.kcl.ac.uk/artshums/depts/europeanstudies/people/staff/academic/talani/index.aspx
(Keep it even shorter, heads of dpt are extremely busy.)
