Status still says DP at the moment, would anyone be kind enough to shed some light on whether this is a good sign?

Thanks!

From what I read on a post last year about DP, is that most were accepted.

I hope this is the case for you - please keep us updated!

Can you share your stats?

Kind regards,

Heyy thanks for the prompt response.

I'm actually the OP but I ended up using another account of mine, my stats are as stipulated above in the first post.

What about yours?

Fingers crossed that we'll both get admitted 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Oh nice, I think you might have also commented on this thread under a different account name.

When did you submit your application, and what's your current application status? Really impressive stats by the way, I'm sure you'll make a competitive candidate!

Emailed the department yesterday and they got back today, saying that I’m in the PAO stage!

Congratulations!! From what I’ve read, it’s almost certain that you’ll receive an offer!🥳

Yesterday, I saw an overview of when the different departments have their meetings. The Department of Land Economy had its first meeting in late October and won’t have its second meeting until mid-January. So, I don’t think those of us who submitted in early November or later will hear back before the start of February… :frown:

Should have pushed my professors a bit more for those academic references, haha!

Thanks for the kind words man.

With such outstanding academic and professional credentials, it’s only a matter of time before you get the conditional offer! 😎

Btw could I check how you managed to gain access to information regarding when DC meetings are held? Tried searching it up a few weeks ago but to no avail haha

Hi, can I know how long was your statement of interest ?
It says 500 words, but you can go up to 5000 characters which is closer to 800 words. So, I was wondering if you should stick with 500 words or use the space?

Personally I wrote around 500 words, use this as a chance to showcase your ability to write succinctly and convey information across in a structured manner.

All the best!! May I ask what your stats are?

Thanks man!!

Off the top of my head, the conditions were to graduate with a first-class honours, complete a language test administered by the English Language Centre, get a student visa, submit a photo, get assigned to a college, and provide proof of being able to finance my studies.

Did your application status change over the last couple days?
