Oxford Clarendon Studentship, 2013-14

I've been offered a place at Oxford to do a DPhil in English. In my acceptance letter, I was told that I'm 'on the reserve list' for the Clarendon. 

 

I assumed this means, 'we've already offered Clarendon to our top choices, and if any of those people turn us down, you might get a look-in.' I suppose it's possible that they haven't made the decisions yet -- but if that were the case, wouldn't they just say that?

 

... On the other hand, after a quick look at the Results Search on gradcafe, I don't see anyone announcing that they have a Clarendon. Coincidence, or have the decisions not been made yet?

 

Anyone know more about this reserve list?

(Whoops, should be 2014 in the subject, not 2013-14.)

 

Thanks for your input! Perhaps 'reserve list' is their way of saying 'you're shortlisted' -- who knows.
