MSc Mathematics and Foundations of Computer Science (MFOCS) Oxford

Has anyone applied for the MFOCS course for 2024 entry? I figured I would create a thread since I couldn't find one. I've not heard anything back so far. From what I've seen in previous years, interviews are usually late Feb/ early March.

How rare is it to get full funding(tuition waiver + stipend) in MFoCS?

It probably depends a lot on your situation, whether you're an international or a home fee student would make a big difference for example. From what I've seen online, full funding for masters is very rare, so I would suggest looking for external scholarships while you still have the chance.

Thank you so much for the suggestion. I am international student btw.

Nope, maybe they aren't doing interviews this year? I believe I saw someone say this for the computational finance masters as they had too many applicants, which is the same department. But then again I think less people apply to this course, typically preferring the computer science masters. Either way we're nearing the 8 week mark so I guess we will know soon!
