One hour, and then the one week wait begins again.😂


Because LSE sends offers only on Friday?

My last 3 offers were so ucas track, so I'm guessing track first.

from what I've seen it's mostly friday @Fbiemad brought the point up, and it's fairly true.

Rejected for one course I applied for at lse, waiting on feedback for the other (also at lse).

Apparently my personal statement wasn't good enough for social policy :/


They only give offer to 1 course per person, so this is normal, don't worry for now.

They reply on Thursdays and Fridays. People say that on Thursdays they "usually" send out rejections and on Fridays they "usually" send out offers.
So no offers?

I got my offer in 2015 on a Thursday and I got the email from LSE before I got the notification from Track.

Cant believe they haven't given any offers out yet! Was definitely expecting some today, seeing as they're already behind last years timings

There have been some. @mehtj006 's college had 2 people who got offers so far. It is just that very few people are actually chatting in this thread compared to last year. There are some other LSE applicants in TSR, but some don't chat here and also many people don't use TSR, so it makes it even harder to find out about people getting offers.

Do any of you know what social life at the LSE is like? I'm only hearing bad things on this side of things for the school for some reason :frown:

Depends on your Personal Statement I guess, but I don't know how competitive that course is, so I can't help.
@mehtj006 might be able to help.

Honestly, you already have the required grades so that barrier is met. Thereafter, for acturial science is literally about the passion you show for actuary on your personal statement. For example, sitting about maths and statistics is good, but you got to say why this relates to actuary. Do that and you've got the offer no problem. To be honest, the only thing that may hold you back is not studying further maths, but its unlikely.
