I got an email right now... waiting list :frown:
By the way, my button is still there

And I'm assuming some must have heard for either outright offer or rejection? In any case, I agree, do not lose hope!

I haven’t heard back and I’m refreshing every minute. I hope it translates into an offer for you. 🤞
Just received my offer from the Oxford MPP (the email just came in five minutes ago)! My hands were shaking as I opened up the email!

I just received my offer as well💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻

If I’m not wrong, we both got into Cambridge and Oxford because I have seen your posts on Cambridge forum as well. I’ll love to disconnect on whatsapp if you would like.

Have you decided on where to go?

Big congratulations to you too! Yes, looks like we got into both. In terms of a decision...I need to just digest this piece of news over the weekend first, and let my family know.

I'll send you a PM later on the Whatsapp :smile:
So the norm is that individuals who had not gotten an acceptance or waitlist from BSG will be served the usual 2:00am email from the grad school. There is no need to refresh emails anymore at this point and please, if you were rejected; this is not the end of the road. Better and brighter days ahead. I am hopeful that BSG was not the only policy school you applied to. I wish everyone the best as they proceed to their different endeavours.
Hi everyone! I received my offer as well!

I received offers from both Cambridge and Oxford too! Although I couldn't find much info online about the key differences in student experiences between the two programmes.

Me neither. Think I'm going to reach out to some alumni for a chat.

Quick question for folks who received the offer from BSG, did you have/receive any link or news on the scholarship questionnaire? the welcome kit seemed to mention it but can't find it on the offer letter?

The link to the scholarship questionnaire was in my offer email itself - stating something along the lines of 'if you would like to be considered for these, please complete the School's questionnaire by [DATE] using this link...'

Ah got it! I think there was some IT issue at BSG's end, finally got the full email 10-15 mins ago! It says you have to accept by 8th April, but I'm guessing you still have time to arrange an English test and transcripts by end of May post that right?

Did BSG call you for a discussion for funding/ nomination?

Yep that's exactly it. :smile:

Not for me - I think right off the bat I don't immediately qualify for quite a few funding sources - but I filled in the scholarship link anyway, so fingers crossed.
