Any English Mst applicants heard anything today?
I haven't! Emailed to ask and they said we should expect to hear back 'very soon', and that was yesterday.
Ok! Had my interview with Ertegun as one of the four nominees for my department. I am even more anxious afterwards! The professors were very kind and supportive and one of them actually told me that I would thrive at Oxford at the end of the interview, but I suppose they say it to everyone! I have to wait until March. I strongly hope I can get it but have no clue what would happen.
I got invited to the interview today (MSc Computer Science) - really excited!

I still don't have an invite
. I'm hoping because interviews are split over two weeks, interview invites will be split across two weeks as well.Original post by JLH356
I got an offer for the DPhil Classical Archaeology on 20th January and I submitted in November. Which course did you apply for?
I applied for MSc Archaeology by the January deadline.

I hope you'll get it! I applied for Ertegun as well, but couldn't yet hear from the History faculty about the application or the Ertegun scholarship. So, if I may ask, what was the content of the interview?

I was hoping it was radio silent because of the strikes, but on GradCafe English PhD students are getting formal letters through today by email so I've kind of lost all hope now tbh </3

Thanks! My potential supervisor asked me about my research interests and why I was interested in those fields, and the professor from the faculty who represented Ertegun asked me about how I can contribute to the house.

Yep, received a formal offer for DPhil in English today, following an informal offer at the beginning of the week. If you're waiting for a decision on English DPhils though, don't despair! Rejections started going out on Tues/Wed too, and it's not over until they say so! Fingers crossed for you
Not yet! I also applied for the January deadline and haven’t heard a thing. I think my research interests are too out there, studying highly illegal stuff, so I’m not holding out much hope. (This hasn’t stopped me from constantly checking TSR though)
Edit: this is for the person who asked about applying to the Oxford internet institute January deadline!

Hey! Could I ask what the interview was about? I got invited by my department and not sure what to expect! EDIT: Sorry just saw the one above!

Anyone heard from Modern South Asian Studies??
Hi! I have applied to the World Literatures MSt, and was just wondering if not getting an informal offer essentially means a definite rejection sometime soon? Do all English applicants receive informal offers before being accepted, or are there any exceptions to this? Thanks!

have you got an offer yet?Original post by wojtek9
I got the offer on 9Jan (I applied before the november deadline) for DPhil in Organic Chem. I also asked to forward my files for the SBM CDT in mid-december and still didnt get information or invitation for interview. Weird.
Congrats on the offer!! I applied for the January deadline, DPhil Physical and Theoretical Chemistry though, no interview invitation or anything either.

have you got an offer yet?Thank you! Unfortunately I don't have an offer. Probably the faculty just sends them all together, but hopefully the nomination for the scholarship means that it is likely to come!
