How long do I have to wait for the official offer letter?

[Ada0824]

Hi, 

I received an email from the Doctoral School at a UK university almost two months ago telling me that I got the place and funding. After 4 weeks of waiting, I emailed them to ask when the letter would be sent out and they just said that they were preparing all the letters for all of the students who got the place so no specific answer. I'm very worried and just wondering how long everyone had to wait to get their offer letters. And should I contact them again about it?

Hello,

I have been in quite a similar position, I think you should be patient if you got a positive response from them. You could be viewed as desperate when you keep insisting on more information.

What you can try to do is to contact them by mid July, if you don’t get your letter. I hope this helps!

I would have tried to call them.
