AR89 Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 Hi all! Surprised to see that there is no thread for Oxford BSG's MPP this year (I wonder why). Starting this for all those waiting for the results.
Monkeys uncle Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 Hello! I was thinking the same thing. Can I have your background please? I am not sure if I will get in to be honest. I know results will come out next week. I am not feeling good about it at all. Just hoping for the best. Whatever is meant to happen, will happen.
Nickel95 Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 Hello! I also applied and anxiously await results. I know we are supposed to hear by March 19, however, acceptances went out on the 13th last year. Do you think there's any chance we will hear today?

As there was a record 34% increase in applications. We definitely wont hear anything until about Wednesday Next week.
Skipper18542 Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 @Monkeys uncle how do you know they had such a large increase in the number of applications this year?

Skipper18542 Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Damn. Hadn’t seen that. Guess it’s going to come down to the wire. Best of luck to everyone.
intlapplicant Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 good to see a thread about the Oxford MPP! So I guess we will know next week? And then if we are accepted, that's when we apply for funding? Despite the general scholarships you could apply with your MPP app.
ZSRA92 Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Hi guys, I’ve been lurking for a while and it’s pretty quiet here. Please do update us if anyone has any news! ?
Monkeys uncle Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Hi guys an update. Has anyone else's drop box menu on the application portal been disabled. Where you could upload transcripts for example? Mine has just been disabled in the last few hours. Anyone else?

The Oxford website says it means a decision has been made. It is not indicative of a rejection or an offer. 2. There are people who have had it disabled and gone on to get an offer and others who have gone on to get rejected. Obviously, many more people will end up being rejected than accepted, so a false association has been made between this happening and rejection. And to answer your question: mine was disabled yesterday.

It seems like we’re likely to hear back either today or tomorrow. They have taken longer than previous years to inform applicants of the outcomes. But in their defence, there was a record-setting number of applicants this year, so that definitely contributes to the delay. At this point, I’ll accept any reply, I just want to be put out of my misery ?

Not to make you more anxious, but when I got accepted (a couple of years ago to BSG), my acceptance email got stuck in the tray for a couple of days hahahaha good luck, everything is going to be fine!

Oh wow. Had you already graduated when you had applied? What do you do now - Post BSG?

Skipper18542 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 @SomeFolkCongrats on graduating from BSG! Happy that you are here in this years thread. I was wondering if you had any words of wisdom on your experience and what you did that you liked or what you would have done differently.
MM99 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 Congratulations that is fantastic! All the best with the course! Did you receive an email from the school this morning?
CP1154 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 I’m in too. I received an email from the school 15 minutes ago
Nickel95 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 3 hours ago, AR89 said: Has anyone received rejection mails yet? I have not received an acceptance, waitlist, or rejection...so I assume the rejection will come in the next couple days. I’m also in the US- not sure if that makes a difference
RD0502 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 (edited) Does anyone know if all admissions are usually sent together? Edited March 16, 2021 by RD0502
