Gondal36 Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 same here buddy. I am sitting in Berlin with my email open. It is already end of day here.
Gov Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 Congratulations to all who got in! Good luck to those who haven't. I received my acceptance letter too. No specific word on funding- except that there are public service scholarships that I can apply for. Any of you guys get specific financial aid offers? Does anyone how this works? Look forward to seeing you awesome people soon!
Nikki-mpp Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 Accepted. No interview. No news on funding but I did indicate my employer would fund.

Nikki-mpp Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 Cheers, good luck guys. Those who have been turned down, don't be too dejected either. There could well be something bigger out there waiting for you. Gov 1
Gov Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 To those who didn't get an offer, please know that I received this offer after many attempts. Also, after having dealt a lot of rejections in the past, I know for SURE that everything happens for a reason- and something new, something better ALWAYS comes out. This is my firm belief. Good luck to everyone!
RandomDancing Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 Are people still waiting ? I haven't received any information yet
Abchope Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 Didn't get it, but good luck to everyone else still waiting!
Labreche Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 (edited) I was not offered a place - pretty gutted by the news. Congrats and good luck to all those who were accepted! Edited March 18, 2016 by Labreche
rocky222 Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 Does anyone know if you apply with your own source of funding, your chance of getting would increase?
DodoBirdBlergh Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 @rocky222, I don't think that's the case. Did you get through? On a related note, did anyone else get nominated for a scholarship...? Which one is it?
sprag Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 I too got accepted, but nothing on funding yet. The entire thing is dependent on the funding I get. I hope we all hear back soon. Congrats to everyone who got accepted. Hope to see you all in Oxford.
Soft Dollar Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) Hi all, Congratulations to everybody who got through. It is a big achievement indeed. I am planning to apply in the upcoming cycle, could anybody please guide me regarding the type of candidates Oxford is looking for. I have gone through the BSG website and understand that the University assesses candidates on the three criteria i.e Leadership potential, academic excellence etc. But I would be interested in knowing if GRE scores matter? even though it is not a requirement for BSG. Especially considering that I have relatively less work experience (3 years) of working with the central bank in development finance. I would also be obliged if anyone could please share their policy essay and profile for guidance. Looking forward for your guidance. Thanks and regards. Edited March 21, 2016 by Soft Dollar

My acceptance letter set out a few scholarships I could apply to. Waiting to hear about the other scholarships I had already applied to at Oxford - the Weidefeld.
inkblot Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Congratulations to all that made it. Look forward to meeting you guys, hopefully, if all goes well. To those who didn't make it- its only the time that wasn't right. Something better is in store or this at a later point in time. it is disappointing, but often an opportunity even though one may not realise it at the time. its a pity we won't meet at Oxford, but its quite likely our paths will otherwise cross and I look forward to that.
DodoBirdBlergh Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Congrats @inkblot! I don't think there was anything in my offer, I just got an email before I got the offer letter saying I had been nominated for a scholarship. They didn't say which one
inkblot Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 O wow, thats great, congrats. Did you apply for scholarships along with your application? Perhaps it was one of those? Alternatively, the application seems to indicate that you will automatically be considered for some scholarships- perhaps this may be that. You could consider asking the admissions team.
