Honestly! I wish they would be more transparent with the process...I haven’t gotten any responses to my application status inquiries.

It’s almost mid June now...as an international student I will need time to prepare all the funds, visa and accommodation. This stuff doesn’t happen overnight.

Seeing old threads everyone had been accepted or rejected by now and were looking for accommodation. If they are planning to reject then having taken this long to do so is disrespectful.

I’m so fed up lmao
Nope! It's been 3 months and all I receive are generic messages! :smile:

Literally everyday I wake up thinking "today is today..."

If this ends in a rejection I'm not going to be sure how to react...hopefully our patience pays off *prays*

Edit: I wish they would tell us the reasoning behind taking so long on some applicants...are we on a waitlist? Tell us something ugghhh

I've messaged 3 times and no response. I want to call but I'm from the US and really am not trying to spend money to call a UK number. But yeah I'll def be pretty annoyed if they made us wait this long to be denied. It's not fair like I literally have to figure out my whole life in this short time haha

I was hoping to call too but I'm also from the United States and rather not spend money on a call that will end with me getting 0 new info. The time difference is also a pain...

It feels like I have my entire life on hold lol. Good luck!

Hi all,

I applied for the Arts & Cultural Management MA on March 25. My document status changed around mid-May. I sent a message last week asking for an update and finally received my offer yesterday.

Good luck to those still waiting to hear and don’t lose hope! :smile:

I'm also in the same boat as yours, I applied on 27 Feb! They just replied my message and the decision should be ready in the 'coming weeks'. Not really sure about the definition of the 'coming weeks'. On the 4th of June my docs were sent to the admission tutor, all the status changed to ready for assestment. Still hoping to get a reply by this week :smile:

Hello guys,

I thought I might share some information regarding my application and so on, as it may help some of you. About me: I am an international student form the EU and did my Bachelor's degree at a small private college in Munich.

I applied for the Master's in International Relations and got my ID on 7 April, 2019. After weeks of waiting and no changes in my portal ("received and being processed), I called them on 20 June and asked them about my status. They told me that it was one of the more competitive programmes, that they had received a ton of applications and apologised several times. Then they offered me to take a look into my application and at least check/process my documents.

On 26 June I received a conditional offer from King's :smile:

I waited 11 1/2 weeks and was informed via email about a change in the portal. You get 4 weeks to accept or decline the offer.

Good luck to everyone!!!
