Help!! Still waiting for LSE geography

Hi everyone!
I just wanted to come on here and get some advice from you guys. Im an early applicant and ive applied to my various universities. Ive got offers from my other two unis (ucl and Kings) for geography but im still waiting for Lse! Im kind of wanting to put ucl as my firm and kings as the insurance but should I still just wait? its difficult bc my exams start in about a week and I don't want to be distracted trying to apply for accommodation/finance or anything if lse eventually does give me an offer but also, what if i wait and I just get a late rejection from Lse? Any advice would be much appreciated and good luck with your exams!

Congratulations on receiving such fantastic offers! LSE does have a reputation for taking their time, but it’s worth remembering that all of your current offers are from excellent universities. Ultimately, only you can decide whether to wait or to firm one of the offers you already hold.

If you feel that securing your choice now would help you focus fully on your exams without additional stress, that’s completely understandable. LSE is an outstanding institution, but so are the others so whichever path you choose, you’re in a strong position.

It’s a great dilemma to have, and the good news is, there’s really no wrong choice here. Best of luck with your decision and your upcoming exams!

Hey! If it helps at all, my friend who applied to LSE did not get her offer until last night at around 8pm. She is going into anthropology, but doing lots of geography in between. If she only just got her offer, then you might not have to wait too much longer!! Good luck! I hope everything goes well for you.
