Hi all,

Is anyone else still waiting for their Conditions Completion form? I'm starting to get quite concerned as I have reached out to my department twice now and heard nothing back and it's been over a month. I emailed my college who confirmed that I had met all financial conditions and suggested I emailed the department and I also emailed admissions but they also just referred me to my course contact. I really don't know what to do. Am I just overreacting and should trust that it will come through shortly? I definitely have met all academic conditions (First class honours) and have had my transcript sent over so I don't know what the delay is.

If anyone can offer any insight I would be super grateful

I just came on here to ask the same thing! I'm at 3 weeks now. I know they've received my documents (I emailed to check) but I'd imagine there's probably a huge backlog right now since everyone's sending in their results. If anybody else knows to do anything more actionable than just sit back and pray then please lemme know!

hi everyone, just wondering if there was a GC set up for anthro postgrads? I've basically made my mind up that I'll be joining for my PhD, and I'm keen to see/meet up with people!

I did and they apologised for the delay and said it would be processed in the coming weeks.

Feeling really really deflated. I meet all the financial conditions for course fees, but the accommodation seems completely unfeasible. There is only one external scholarship that I am eligible for, but I won’t hear back from them until the 31st… after term has already started.
What are my options? It’s insane to me that at most other universities, I’d definitely qualify for some kind of hardship grant considering my situation, but Oxford have been so reluctant to offer any support

Unless I am mistaken, it is only the course fees that you need to prove you can cover. I doubt a proof for accommodation fees is required by Oxford. Best of luck!

Hi! I'm sending the link to everyone that requests it. Please send me a DM, I can't seem to reach your profile.

Hi, can I also get the link please? (I can't seem to send DMs, as I don't think I've made enough comments -- not a big talker!)

Question! Does anyone have any information on how to go about securing a teaching position as a PhD student? I'm from the US, and here it's pretty much a given that all PhD students will teach and be paid through that, but I know it's different in the UK. I'd appreciate any tips or advice!

Depends strongly on your subject, but you have to already be on course and then complete some form of teacher training in your first year. Usually you are not allowed to take on substantial teaching until after you’ve done transfer of status. The opportunities available then vary according to department.
