Were you invited to an interview before your status changed to GAO?

No, but I had several informal discussions and, one might say, "interviews" with my prospective supervisor prior to submitting my application, so they already told me I shouldn't expect an interview.

I just moved to GAO. Took less than 1 hour after degree committee. I'll believe it when the offer comes through....

Wow that was fast! Congrats! Mine hasn’t moved yet but I’m hopeful it will soon. When did you apply?

I applied on the 1st of October, feels ages ago now. Still won't be celebrating until the offer actually comes in but happy with the progress!

Thank you! Good luck to you as well :smile:. I applied very early as I'm working at the moment not studying, so no essays/exams to worry about. I didn't actually give it much thought until January, but since I've been active on here I can't stop checking it lol.

Congrats! Are you from the UK?
My status hasn't moved yet. I wonder if it's because I'm an international student.
Same, I'm really hoping for some movement before today ends, really don't wanna go through a whole weekend of nothing

Hope so!

I do imagine some of the applications have been waitlisted (scrambling to find suitable supervisors).
Hi guys! My application went to degree committee yesterday and then GAO today! Also I applied at the end of November if that helps anyone!

Thank you!!! Marginality and exclusion, I had named a supervisor I had been in contact with for a while because I applied last year too so it might've been quicker due to that!
