Lshtm 2020 application

Hello, I had applied to LSHTM: MSc control of infec. diseases in early december. The application portal shows decision under review. Does anyone know how long it will take? If they delayed the decision, more than 6 weeks, I cannot apply for any funding.

Hey! I also applied for that course early December and my application shows the same status. From reading last year's group it seems as though people had quite long wait times of over 10 weeks.

Update to the above: it’s been 3.5 weeks since I applied and I just got an offer!

hey everyone! congrats on your offers, is anyone who applied an international student? I am guessing it will take longer for us to hear back.

I am an international student. I dont really think it makes a difference at all. The difference lies more in the time each department takes to review the applications I think.

Hi all,

I applied in early Jan and my references were submitted in late Jan. My status went from "academic team review" to "admissions processing". Does anyone know what that means? I am just curious as "admissions review" was skipped.

Thanks!

Hi everyone, congrats to those who have received an offer! I've just paid the application fee and waiting to submit - is it usual for this to take a few days?

Hey yeh that’s totally normal - it also worries me haha but Flywire takes a couple of days to send the payment to LSHTM usually.

Thank you!!! :biggrin:
To those who have been waiting for quite a while - have you now received your offer? Just submitted mine a few moments ago (although I've yet to receive an acknowledgement email), now the wait begins...
