KCL, UCL, LSE for environment related subjects 2016

Hi guys,
Im just curious if anyone has applied and received or still awaiting offers for these courses at these institutions:
KCL: Environment, Politics & Globalisation MA (Full-time) at King’s College London
UCL: MSc Economics and Policy of Energy and the Environment
LSE: MSc in Environmental Economics and Climate Change (1st choice)
MSc in Environment and Development (2nd)
I have got an offer from KCL and I applied in early January, got offer around late Jan, while both UCL and LSE was finally sent in with references around 22nd of feb

Hey, I applied to UCL and LSE with exactly same courses as yours. My reference letters were not completed until early Feb, so I haven't heard anything atm. I assume we need to wait until at least the end of March?
I applied to UCL in January, and they didn't reply for more than 6 weeks! call them, as I was informed that I got my offer from calling them!

Nah, I'm doing environment, economics and ecology for my undergraduate. No one I've heard been applying to environment related for master. The admission statistic is pretty low (relatively) for the one in LSE though. :frown:

What was the deadline for your KCL offer? I'm in a similar situation, have an offer from KCL and am waiting on UCL and LSE. My KCL offer deadline is end of April but I'm worried that I won't hear back in time from the others. Do you know if there's any leeway with the deadlines?

end of April!
from what I know, I believe you can speak to the schools to possibly extend the period. But is best to phone up LSE or UCL to see if they have made a decision or not
