does anyone also apply very early but still haven't heard the result? Is that an implicit rejection or they are pooling my applications with the second round of applicants?

Applied December 3rd, still under review by department. I guess they’ll reconsider us with the next pool

Same here, pal. Applied Dec 20 and it says still under review. I think after reading the previous posts, I'd take it that international applicants (Int'l as in Non-US) may take a while to process (?) Myself included as I'm from the far east. So expect to hear nothing until the Feb 25 deadline. Then following the 25th I'll go back to my daily prayers again lmaooo.

Edited: here's what they told me after I emailed in Late Dec asking when can I expect to hear back.

"The earliest decisions on applications are expected in January 2021, with the majority of decisions finalised after all applications have been considered following the application deadline of 25 February 2021.

The programme starts with a preparatory Maths & Statistics programme in mid-September"

Thanks for sharing this.
Hi, I'm applying for MPhil in Finance and I'm currently studying, in my final year. Is it necessary to provide full transcripts for my progress until now or will an enrolment letter be enough as I have not yet completed my course. Please let me know thank you :smile:

Hi! I applied for the MPhil Real Estate Finance, but I'd think the process is the same. Am in final year too at a UK Uni, basically submitted transcripts from my uni for results in Years 1 and 2 :smile: There's a section in the application form which will ask you for it. Hope this helps!

Applied very early on Oct 29, still under view by department. I am really nervous these days and maybe I am in the waiting list.

Has anyone got rejected yet for MPhil Finance or MPhil Finance and Economics. 14 weeks seems out of ordinary as even on their website they say up to 12 weeks. Have you tried to reach out ?

You should contact them i guess. For example, i also applied to the econ research MPhil and they notified me that i have been waitlisted.

By the way, for mphil Finance, did you submit a research proposal?

No. But since Mphil in finance said that ‘Applications are considered in stages as part of a gathered field. The earliest decisions on applications are expected in January 2021, with the majority of decisions finalised after all applications have been considered following the application deadline of 25 February 2021.’, I just think may be I should to wait another weeks after 25 Feb.

I thought MPhil Finance and Economics you are waiting for 14 weeks, my bad there. As last deadline for that course was back in Jan....
