I am still waiting to hear back too... Did you receive an answer by email or on the portal? Since I applied I have not received any email back from the mrc, not even a confirmation email, is it the same for you guys? On the portal it still shows my application as 'submitted' but no other info. Good luck to you all!!

By email, my portal status didn't change

I got an invite to interview this morning

Maybe I got rejected then. Good luck!

Any news? I still have no answer

Me too. If you must have interviews on 26-27, consider it a rejection. Maximum waitlist, but it's not very good either.

I emailed them the other day and they said we would hear back either way (if we were rejected or accepted to interview) and they said they were still shortlisting candidates and they would be contacted shortly (that was on Wednesday) but I still haven’t heard anything

Oh that’s interesting.. but doesn’t make sense if the interview dates on the website are going ahead as surely then all the shortlisting would have been completed? I’m also yet to receive a response :/

I know, I doesn’t make much sense at all, hopefully they finish short listing soon. I still haven’t heard anything at all

Has anyone applied for the UCL Birkbeck MRC DTP? If yes, have you received any update?
Hi there, has anyone received the email about result of interview? public health theme

Reply 89

this is so weird honestly. it's literally the end of the last working day before interviews, just kinda trashy & unprofessional to leave people hanging for so long imo like I would not be able to make the interview on such short notice at this point and I'm not keeping 2 full days free just in case

On the website it says in summer, but they are pretty irrelevant because you pick your own topics and supervisors
