Should I Email Oxford? Please Help!

Hey everyone,
I applied for the MSc in Education (Digital and Social Change) at Oxford on January 9th (January deadline), and I know they say you usually get an update within 8 to 10 weeks, so I thought today might be the day. But I haven’t heard anything yet.

The reason I’m asking is that I’ve been selected as a semi-finalist for a funding opportunity in my home country, and if my application to Oxford has been rejected, I’ll need to let them know that I’m no longer eligible for the final stage.

Do you think it’s too early to email Oxford today or should I just wait until the end of week 10 as they usually suggest?

Would love to hear your thoughts!

i am in the same situation as you. i explained my situation to every unis i applied to and some are kind enough to accelerate the process. my department in oxford, however, explained that they will process all applicants by march 21st.
regardless, go ahead and email them your situation. i am sure they will assist you. goodluck!

Thank you for replying! Which dept are you applying to?

Global and Area Affairs. No worries. Do let me know if u have any more questions
