Congratulations!!! If I understood correctly, DP means you have been recommended by the department and the general admission team are now just checking the validity of your experience.

I certainly hope that's the case. I'm hoping they release the decisions soon.

Thanksss.. I mean it’s part of the process.. I wasn’t successful but I’m sure that someone else who deserves that place got in.. so why not work hard and maybe apply again..

No it was straight rejection.. (after being put on hold).. you don’t have to worry if you have DP.. as they are just doing background checks etc.. so congrats haha 🥂

I'm sorry to hear. Best of luck with everything and nice that you took a proactive approach too. Did you get an offer somewhere else? Or are you considering re-applying next year?

Thank you!! And.. you don't have to be sorry.. it's all part of the process haha.. I think that I don't deserve a place this year and someone else deserves it..
And yes.. I did apply for other programmes at Cambridge/Imperial/Edinburgh.. this MPhil was my favourite but yeah.. in case I wasn't successful with my other applications I will probably take a gap year (not sure because I have offers from Edinburgh and Manchester.. but I don't want to rush it.. this is an investment for me.. I pay the overseas tuition fee.. so you can see how confusing it is for me rn.. but I will take my time to make a decision.. and please if you have any suggestions let me know...) I hope that you guys hear some positive news this week.. keep us updated haha
