ashriv Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Just starting this one for Oxford admits (Fall 2014)! Who has gotten offers already? Will you be joining? I was offered a seat to study MSc in Computer Science.
Rajaraja_Chola Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 Does anyone know when the Dphil scholarship decisions will be informed to the applicants?
argo360 Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 Haven't decided yet but I'll be doing MSci in Environment Economics and Management. They promised me a reply by March 5. My other choice is LSE, unfortunately finance is a huge problem and it looks like there's not much scholarship/funding offered to Canadians. We'll see what happens. Is there a meet and greet in person for Oxford? I'd love to meet and chat.
dangerousmedicalman Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) Attending Oxford this fall. I was wondering if anyone can comment on St Cross accommodation (i.e. main site vs. annexe vs. stonemason house)? I have found very few posts via Google searches, most of them with conflicting opinions... Edited March 13, 2014 by dangerousmedicalman dangerousmedicalman 1
InGaussweTrust Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 American accepted to the Economics program, starting Fall 2014. It'd be nice to touch base with others in the program, Americans starting in 2014, or pretty much anyone else at the University that would like to touch base via facebook prior to arrival. PM if interested. (Still waiting to hear back about college, will post as I receive it) Good luck to those still waiting to hear back!
Luca89 Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 Does anyone know when the Dphil scholarship decisions will be informed to the applicants? i was wondering the same thing... what about the AHRC competition for example? (I hold an offer for a DPhil in History and would be based at Queen's)
argo360 Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Canadian accepted to Msc Environment Management, Did anyone get their college acceptance yet?
Kleene Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Still not sure whether I will be attending (MSc Maths and the Foundations of CS). Any word on funding (Clarendon etc.) yet?
IbnRushd Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 MPhil in Modern Middle Eastern Studies :-) still pondering whether to accept or go to UChicago, depending on scholarship results
EccentricAcademic Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 (edited) MPhil Islamic Studies and History Edited March 30, 2014 by Historian7
khochi Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 I'll be joining the DPhil Anthropology program this October - does everyone have a college offer? I'm still waiting for that...
mellys Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Another Canadian- admitted to DPhil Earth Sciences. Congrats to everyone!
ProfMoriarty Posted April 19, 2014 Posted April 19, 2014 MPhil Geography and the Environment! No news on college yet, though...
Kleene Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 I have officially committed to Oxford and Balliol College.
actuallyatree Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Wow, that's pretty quick getting all the college stuff sorted out. Nicely done. I still haven't heard anything yet, hoping I'll find out sometime this week.
ProfMoriarty Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Did you guys already send the paperwork required to make your conditional offer unconditional? My letter said the deadline to send this is July, but I want to get it done ASAP. Does this affect whether you get college placement quicker?
IbnRushd Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 I don't believe it does, as I got a place at St Anthony's even if my offer is still conditional. I think it depends on how many applicants each college has, and on the efficiency of the staff there. But you should definitely send the paperwork as soon as possible :-)
khochi Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 I don't think it speeds anything up - I received an offer from a college this week and still have not met the conditions of the departmental offer.
Kleene Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Did you guys already send the paperwork required to make your conditional offer unconditional? My letter said the deadline to send this is July, but I want to get it done ASAP. Does this affect whether you get college placement quicker? No, it does not affect college placement. Current undergrads do not get their degrees before May/June/July/August anyway (depending on your institution).
Giardap Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 I have been accepted for the Masters in Public Policy (MPP). I still awaiting info on funding and which college I'll be attending.
ProfMoriarty Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 Just received news about college placement! St.Anne's college for me
ProfMoriarty Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Bumping this thread looking for other future Oxonians on the forum! I've met both the academic and financial conditions for my offer The college has already sent me the payment form, and the graduate coordinator emailed me back today to inform me that they'll send me the university contract soon. This is so exciting!
