Do you mind if I private message you? I’d love to meet (virtually 😅) someone before getting there.

Yes please! I’d love that actually! Congratulations on your offer! This is so exciting!

I wouldn’t focus much on that. Everyone has a unique profile and matching students with advisors might take longer for some than others.

Also if it meant to be it will happened,, stressing out won’t change a thing .. just enjoy your day and forget about it

I know it’s easier said then done but try!🙏

Deeply brutal, I haven't slept in days but it was a lovely surprise this morning! Still got to wait on funding, but hopefully see you there this autumn :smile:

There is still plenty of time for you both to get accepted, I am really rooting for you!

Don't count yourself out yet, its not over until the fat lady sings (rather annoyingly at 2am). I know the wait is excruiating but you've got this :smile:

Just a standard offer letter, lots of clauses and jargon. Nothing on colleges or funding yet but did get confirmation of supervision with the two supervisors I mentioned before, so I am chuffed with that.

Want to join this thread as I wait for the decision :biggrin:

The button disappeared on Monday around 3 pm.

Since most of us are DPhil applicants, do you mind sharing your thoughts on how you prioritize a university? (apart from funding).
How many unis did you apply to?
