Hey gang,

Any news this week?

Hello! You are new, right? Welcome to the thread!
Well, there is still nothing happened and I think it is possible that we have been put on hold...

How long ago did you apply? I've been reading the main cambridge thread and now I'm not expecting a response until applications areclosed at the earliest!

Hi everyone, I've been reading this thread for a while and I am new here. I applied on December 14th and status is still the same-under consideration by department. Do you maybe now when we could expect some changes?

That's early! Mid October myself.
Yes - looking at the old threads, they occasionally give out offers before than but it's quite rare!

In past years some management applicants have heard as late as May and even June. Any other decent programmes are probably full by then, in fact some probably already have most applications in by now. Wouldn't it be prudent for you to apply for a couple of others as backup now, rather than waiting and then risking not having any decent programmes left should you oniy get a decision months down the line?

Hi All,I recently received offer for LSE MSc in International Management (IMEX) and is still waiting for the result from Cambridge MPhil in Management. The reason why I applied for the two programs is that I do not have enough work experience yet to apply for MBA and I am not sure if MBA is my ultimate goal.Could anyone kindly share their take on which to choose: LSE/ Cambridge/ MBA (apply next year)?

Hi everyone :smile:

Congrats !! Are you a Cambridge/Ox undergrad?

Thanks !

No, I'm from a French university :smile:

I guess I got an early response because I could provide all the documentation from the get-go to prove that I met the requirements (I've already finished my bachelor degree), hence my application may have been easier to process than applications from current undergrad students.

Hi everyone :smile:

Congrats! I'm also recent graduate (2015)
But I guess I'm in the middle range of the stack.
Hope to see you in the class :smile:

Well done!

Just out of curiosity, did you apply for any other courses at Cambridge?

Nothing too!

Maybe we have to wait until least this Monday (15th), it's the application deadline day.

I was hoping that on the 12th chime of deadline o'clock yesterday an email would go 'poof' onto my screen and a bunch of singing mice would read out the result of my application.... alas, the wait endures
