Cambridge MPhil Real Estate Finance 2021-2022

Hi everyone, I’m Kate from China. Received the “move to GAO” email on 1st March and I’m still waiting for the final result. Super nervous 😭

What is your background?

Congratulations! Moving to GAO basically means that you are accepted, so there's no need to be nervous!

Would you mind sharing your background/profile?

What date did you apply?

Thanks for your kindness. Hopefully will hear back soon.

Accounting at a college run by Mainland-HK cooperation, first honor.
Two short internships in investment and bank. Have done some work for real estate investment projects and about personal credit.

My background is not very competitive. Many people here are so excellent!

Congrats Kate!! Your background definitely sounds appropriate/competitive, have confidence!

Hope you get confirmation from GAO and Colleges soon (:

It’s so nice of you! That’s very cheering, thanks.
But I’m sorry my last post is not correct. Just checked the portal and found it is still under review.

Hope things go well for you

Hey guys, I just checked my portal and my status has moved to PAO. Not sure if this means 100% I secured the offer, does anyone know what's the difference between PAO and GAO?

Congrats!!! It does mean you've probably secured the offer and they just need to ensure your records (i.e. university, results, etc.) are legitimate and you're not a fraud lol. PAO and GAO are the same, and probably you'll get your conditional/unconditional offer in maybe 2 weeks.

I know the rest are gonna ask about your background but noted you've already posted in the earlier pages that you applied in Nov. Congrats once again!

Thanks! I hope this means they are finally giving out offers and hope everyone can hear back from them soon! I'll probably make an update of my entire application progress when I get the official offer.

Hey guysHope all going well on the app process. My app changes into PAO two days ago
But it seems like the PAO stage can take at least 2 weeks under COVID....still nervous cuz I saw someone got rejected after PAO (but it was because her uni was not a prestigious school)
Best wishes guys

Hi Guys, checked my applicant portal today and received the 'Awaiting approval by PAO - Awaiting approval by the Postgraduate Admissions Office.' having applied in late November. I have shared my background in an earlier post.
