I applied mid-march and haven't heard back yet but looks like the course I applied to are still open for applications. Been about 6 weeks so hopefully I hear back soon - starting to get worried.

Which course have you applied to?

Good luck to you. By the sounds of it King's seems to take just over a month to respond, so I wouldn't be worried.

Yep just read through the discussion in this thread - seems like the usual response rate is anywhere between 6-8 weeks. Approaching my 6th week so fingers crossed.

Have you applied anywhere else? I'm still waiting on LSE/Imperial/UCL as well. They also seem like they're 6-8 weeks response rate.

I have applied to UCL, Manchester and Bristol. Manchester gave me an offer 24 hours after applying, Bristol just over a week after applying. UCL seems to be the one that takes the longest, with some people waiting over 10 weeks, which is annoying because that is my top choice (if I get an offer that is :/). I wanted to apply to LSE, but the tuition is too expensive for me at £16,440!!!!!

I do not know how the admin works at any of these universities, but maybe now with the first deadline closed at KCL they may be quicker to respond? Just a guess, I could be completely wrong though.

how long before you received an offer? my docs are 'received' for 5 weeks now, but nothing...does 'receive' mean theyve checked them, or is it a standard word?

I have been waiting for 10 weeks now and still no response...

They have everything they need, just taking a long time to check everything and reach a decision for me.

I just found out they have everything they need from me to assess my application.

Hi, curious if anyone has received an offer for the Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) Management MSc program? I know they are using a partial gathered field approach to decision making, so I am expecting it to take a while but I haven't seen many people posting about this program online much at all. Thanks!

I applied for a programme from the IoPPN in February but I haven't heard anything yet. No response from anyone via the portal messaging service. I accepted an offer from another university instead.

I think my document status changed this week. This is week 7 since I applied, fingers crossed I hear back soon!
