Hello everyone! Anyone here who applied for the Oxford Internet Institute?

I applied by the January deadline. So I am wondering if any of my fellow applicants already received an interview invitation?

Thank you and my warmest regards to all of you!

To the person who liked my previous post: did you receive an interview invitation?

My upload button has disappeared, and I never got an interview for MRes Oncology, I suppose I'm just waiting for the 2am rejection now😣

How long ago did your button disappear? You might still get an acceptance!

I'm not sure, when I checked at 10am BST it was gone but yesterday evening it was still there. I didn't get an interview though which is part of the admissions process so I can presume I will be rejected 😞

Hi, what's the course that you applied to? If it's Social studies of the internet, the general consensus here is that they don't seem to interview full-time applicants. Check out this thread https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=7141680

My application for this course is being re-assessed against the January candidates. Is that the same for you?

Yes it is! I saw a couple of other posts about it and I am really confused thinking they gave the same feedback to everyone?

Yeah I was thinking the same but then I saw on the Grad Cafe that someone was rejected for our course back in January so seems like they have made a few decisions. Is your upload button still there? Mine disappeared yesterday but haven’t heard anything yet

I am also worried. I sent them an email on the 14th of Jan and they said that results would be communicated in the following 2 weeks which should be the week of 17th and 24th, but still heard nothing.


Apparently we will know by Tuesday. Has your upload button gone?

Thanks for this info! Do you know anything more about the process, e.g. what’s actually discussed or how applicants are ranked?

I’ve been imagining a numerical ranking based on the form potential supervisors fill in, didn’t realise there was also a discussion element.

Has anyone heard anything from the History department?

Does anyone know if applications always move past the “Ready for assessment” stage? My MSt English application hasn’t moved beyond this stage yet after applying before the Jan deadline, and from previous years on Gradcafe offers for my course come out 2/3 weeks from now.

It is so difficult to not be impatient when I know I won't hear any news until March. Anyone have any tips to stop stressing/checking constantly?

You won't get any status updates through the portal, unlike for Cambridge! You will get an email when you get an offer or rejected :smile:

That's so odd? I just checked, if you mean the upload button under supporting documents -- mine is still there. I don't know what that means lol

From what I’ve read on here, when that upload button disappears it means that the department has made a decision about your application so you’ll hear soon. If this is right I guess it means they haven’t made a decision on your application yet which isn’t bad news!

Alright okay! Well I sure hope that you get in then and receive some good news soon as your button is gone :smile:
