I'm so excited for you!!!! Can't wait to meet you! BCM is going to be great!

Semi-finalist for Western Sydney University Grant in Australia.

Accepted into MS Biodiversity, Conservation & Management. December 20th.

I think we will find out soon! At least in January that is. I am actually just graduating from a Master's program at Georgetown in D.C. in May and I only applied to the Oxford program. I was looking for a biodiversity program that I could enter to continue the thesis research I have been doing at Georgetown and the Oxford program was the perfect fit. I was absolutely thinking about using it to expand to PhD if possible. Because of this, I'm a little less anxious about timing and whether this is the year for me or not. It's super exciting that you have already been accepted into other programs though! Congrats! Either way, you are on a great track! Also, just conservation and biodiversity love <3 <3 <3 No matter what, you are doing awesome and rewarding research and work! Also, I have the same feeling living in D.C. that when I wake up I could be seeing that email. And the Christmas gift of Oxford is so perfect. I have been all secretive about it to my family and haven't told anyone I applied, but if the notifications came out this week, I would be SO SO SO happy to tell everyone.

Hey PermanentStudent! I also applied for the November deadline for MSc in Conservation, Biodiversity and Management. The uncertainty is killing me. I know it says 8-10 weeks from the November deadline, but I keep having hope that we will find out early and checking my email all the time. I see a lot of people online saying that in past years they were told that they would be re-evaluated in the January cycle so they wouldn't even find out until March or April. I really don't want that to happen. I'd rather just know if I'm in or out now! I keep trying to just live in the moment for the holidays and not think about it. It's not really working haha! The program looks so amazing though! If I don't get in this year, I might just apply again because I thinks it's a really innovative and cool program for biodiversity. The faculty seem so passionate and I see that a lot of alumni end up going into the PhD right after. How are you dealing with the uncertainty yourself?

Any notifications?

D.C. is open today.

Another snow day...maybe tomorrow?

Snow day in DC...hopefully later this week.

Ah, just saw the post about not hearing back until the last week!

Has anyone heard back about the semifinal round?
