LSE MSC application 2018/19 discussion

Thank you so much!

Also what you have said is so true because we mostly hear of those getting accepted on the student room which is really great but can make others waiting/rejected from other courses feel a little more nervous and disappointed, its good to hear others have experienced this as well I guess we can all relate on that and that we aren't alone! But so agree with this point, it really is their loss!

I really hope you're right about the longer we wait, the more likely we will get in because I am now on my 11th week of waiting lolololol

Yeah 11-week period is much more of a good sign and hopeful the painful wait will definitely be rewarded.

Look forward to seeing you on campus this year

Hello and thank you for your kind words too

For me Edinburgh rejected me automatically due to degree incompatibility which was rather ridiculous as they haven’t even looked at the profile yet.

It took about 1 month for UCL Imperial Warwick to get back and 1 month later for Imperial so that time was really horrible for me.

However LSE replied and accepted me one week after Imperial decision meaning my waiting time for LSE was almost 11-week long so for LSE the longer you wait the more likely you will get in.

I look forward to hearing good news from you very soon 😊

Omg you're soooo optimistic and I'm here dying from nervousness hahaha I look forward to seeing you too!!!! xD xD if not, I'll be next door at SOAS anyways hahaha

loool! Nathan9087 always keeps hope alive. He made me see the light when I was in the dark. Thank heavens I received an offer from LSE (after only 4 weeks - and to think it wasn't my firm choice, what was I even thinking). I am keeping my fingers crossed that you will get yours soon. Gosh! 11 weeks is a long time. I can imagine what you'll be thinking about while waiting.

Yes I totally agree and so glad that we will be studying at LSE this year.

Also does forget to join the Facebook group and look forward to seeing you there my friend

Let me know if anyone has made a thread for those awaiting scholarships, received an offer but it’s too much, and there seems to be little information as to when we will be informed about scholarships. Thanks!

Okay it sounds ridiculous that Edinburgh didn't even take the time to read your profile first! May I ask what you applied to all unis?
I am sorry that you went through a very tough time but it has proved that everything was worth waiting for in the end with that big bonus offer from LSE! So well done for getting through everything

I also hope to get back to you soon with some good news - but I would also like to wait longer for LSE so I still stand a chance in the game!

Yes 11-week period was extremely long but in the end it was just like the White Knight bringing miracles to me after a long period of waiting with mixture of offers & rejections

I look forward to seeing you at LSE too my friend

I also hope the White Knight will bring miracles to me hahaha, hope I am lucky for this week like you were.

For those of you who have been rejected for the automatic GSS:
I would highly recommend reinstating your GSS application via the link in your LSE for you. Initially, my need was too much for the GSS (way over £15000) and got rejected. I had the option of waiting forever for a scholarship, so I cited “future work earnings” in the form of a few thousand pounds to reduce my need to the means of the GSS. This meant that a human being reviewed my application, and a few weeks later, I was awarded £14000 through GSS. Which, to be honest, I had never even heard of happening. Although my fees are higher as an international student, this put LSE back into the running for me.

Long story short: try reducing the amount you need by a some (though they do say that it needs to be a significant change) and have an actual human being review it.

Hi! So good for you. Where do I find the link to reinstate my GSS application?
