Hey, thanks for your kind words. Actually, the MPhil in Management deadline isn’t in January.. it’s in the 25th of February. I applied on the 4th of December, so a bit earlier. Have you heard back yet?

Hey, sorry to hear that. Do you mind me asking when you applied? I applied in November and still haven't heard anything back.

I applied mid-November and still haven't heard back regarding the interview. Starting to get a bit worried to be honest 😅

And the 12-week deadline from when I applied is coming up soon so don't know if it means I'm rejected

Thank you! I'm doing PPE at LSE and I've done 3 internships related to marketing, events and social media. Planning on going into marketing and then eventually entrepreneurship. The interview is relaxed and only lasts about 20 minutes. They ask why you want to switch to management and questions related to the career goals you wrote in your application. They just want to make sure that you've thought into applying to this specific program and have thought about your future plans. I'd recommend reading through the course information carefully and linking your answers to the course's key values (teamwork, leadership, etc...)

As far as I know, friends with offers received them within 5 days of the interview, I would have thought that not hearing anything for a short time after the interview or submitting = rejection by default, DUT I DO SEE 2 more of us who have received rejection letters, and I'm not sure now！

Thank you! I'm currently finishing of a PPE degree at LSE, which included doing a consulting capstone project (similar to the Management Consulting Project that's part of this program). I did a pretty even split of quantitative and more qualitative/applied modules.

I've done 3 internships related to marketing,events, social media and media planning across the entertainment, food and travel industries. My career plans are to continue working in marketing and then eventually become an entrepreneur in a similar industry to what I've worked in before. 🙂

Hope this helped and good luck!

Anyone hasn't heard anything (either interview invitation or decision) since their submission? I submitted in mid November and haven't heard anything so far... and I'm guessing if it is a rejection by default
