Hi! I have an offer for Cambridge's MPhil in criminology too :smile: I've spoken to two past students before applying and, if you want to exchange contacts, we could talk about it directly!

Thanks so much, and congrats on your offer too! I’m super excited and terrified 🤣 Nope, still stuck waiting for college membership as well. You can email me at 91sages @ gmail.com (this site wouldn’t let me post my full email, so I added spaces... it should work! 😅)

Hi everyone,
I’m thinking of applying for the MPhil in Criminology at Cambridge for 2025/26. My background is:

Low 2:1 in my undergraduate degree

About to start my PGDL this year

No direct criminology degree background, but strong interest in criminal justice and related topics

I know this course is competitive, so I’d really appreciate blunt, honest feedback on whether I have any realistic chance with this profile.
Thanks in advance!
