Congratulations. :smile: This is really exciting, I am on the status of "Application with Degree Committee" and I hope to join you at BoGS soon. Have you gotten any official offers?


Not yet mate.

Most likely i will be accepted in LSE. I applied for Msc finance and private equity and the head of admissions contacted me after 2 days and told me they want to consider me for the MSc Finance.



I've applied to UCL and Imperial a couple of days ago but no response. I don't care though, since Cambridge offered me a place.

I also applied to Oxford for an Mphil in Eco, which is my priority, but it is a long shot for a variety of reasons.

Thanks for the reply. I have got an offer in Economics and Management at LSE already, it seems to be a really good course that will put me in good stead within the industry.

Of the two (LSE's MSc Finance and Cambridge's MPhil Management), which would you prefer? Just curious. :smile: Good luck for Oxford too!

Thank you very much mate.

It is a tough call. To be perfectly honest with you, i am seriously considering of deferring the LSE application for the next year, and attempt to gain funding in order to undertake both master's, but i place a slight priority on Cambridge. The reason might be a sibling rivalry, since my sister went to Cambridge and it gets me mad that i did not haha.

Oxford is extremely difficult to get into. I have seen previous offer holders in linkedin, and their credentials are ridiculous.

That is a good call, if you can afford to work out the sums for it.

Also, aha interesting reason! It's your turn finally :smile: But that is really quite a dilemma. I wouldn't know what to do if I were you, but the collegiate experience and strong networks at Cambridge really attract me. So, for myself if I'm fortunate enough to have such a conundrum I'd pick Management over the Economics and Management programme at LSE.

Hopefully, though, the status will change to BoGS soon and I can join you. ;( Congrats on your offers again :smile:
BoGS. I think the department is beginning to roll out waves of decisions. Good luck everyone, hope to see you at CJBS! :smile:
I guess congratulations are in order then! :smile:
Were you notified when the status changed?

Unfortunately not. But it changed this morning at 9 from the last time I checked midnight yesterday. Changed to "Under consideration by Degree Committee" yesterday morning.

Sincerest best of luck to you, miremind! :smile:

I also got the offer of LSE MSc Economics and management, and I applied for Cambridge Management at the end of January and still waiting for the result. May I ask when did you apply?
My status changed from awaiting decision by BoGS to awaiting approval by BoGs....

Mine is still the same at department :/
Anyone who applied in late november has moved on to other stage of the application process?
Hello everyone. I applied in mid Jan, but the status is till at department. Finger crossed.
I see many of you already received an offer. Congratulations! :smile:
Conditional offer made - good luck to everyone! :smile:
This thread is utterly quiet... Might be the next wave of batch doesn't come yet

Wow! I would have assumed that you received your offer before me (My status changed to BoGS 1 day after yours)... Where did you do your undergrad at? Mine changed to Conditional Offer Made 3 days after BoGS, although weirdly my status reverted back to "Application with Degree Committee" just two days ago but I received my offer and conditions :smile:

I did my undergrad in Australia. The wait is killing me... anyone else in this situation?
