This is a post for future applicants.
Do not bother applying for the OXFORD MPP, Unless you have significant (at least a decade's) worth of experience in Public Policy + A reference from a very senior official like Prime Minister/President or similar giving you an outstanding recommendation.
If you only have about 5 years public policy experience - The only way you will obtain an offer is if you went to Oxford for undergrad, or have some personal connection to the Dean of the BSG or the admissions team (Old Boys Network). Or you come from some super rich family that is willing to donate to the Oxford library or something .
Now The Oxford MPP course is extremely competitive. Literally don't bother unless you are some senior Government official. Just look at the current class that they post, all with tons of experience + Graduated with a 4.0 from an ivy league more than a decade ago....
