Hey there, has anybody applied for this programme as well? It's been almost 3 months since opening and there has no results been released. Does anybody know the reason? I'm tired of just waiting! I know 55 other students with the same situation here. Share your experience and information with us! xx!

I've seen the post under the thread 'UCL Information Management for Business'. It's about that course right? Cus MSc BA (MS) is way much different from other courses in the UCL. The department is just not satisfied with the applicants. But I thought they could at least release offers to some best students and rejections to some students who have not met the entry requirement. I know some applicants even got an offer from LSE, and some of them have already withdrawn the application of BA (MS), some of them are still waiting for it.

According to the department, there are already 400 applicants. I know 55 of them from another forum. None of them has received a result. Have you heard of any information?

It's a Chinese forum so if you speak Mandarin, you can search for 'chase dream', or add my wechat 'jiayexiao7'. We have a group chat of this course.

Did you ask for the BSc Management Science or MSc Business Analytics (Management Science)? Cus what we've asked for was purely about MSc.

At least 60 now. There may be many applicants who haven't joined out group. Some of us have done undergrad in UK.

And no one has received a reply...god that's a bit sad. When did you apply? My application was complete on 8th Jan. Do you know if anyone has been accepted into the specialisation with computer science course?

I applied on 3th Dec, but my tutors uploaded the references for on 10th. I know someone applied right after the opening of the course. I know several CS offer holders. Did you applied that specialisation as well?

Nope, does it require 2 years work experience? specialisation is CS so fast in giving results.

Well it doesn't require it, but on the website it states "Candidate with a least two years of professional, full-time work experience are preferred." So take what you wish from that.

I've just checked the page and didn't find your quotation. when did you see it? was it under entry requirements? they've changed some requirements on the page. they used to prefer students to upload their portfolio.
