Thanks!! 27th and 28th of March. Can request a date but wont find out timetables or panels until after the invites have all gone out and been accepted

 

And Akimtansi my applicant portal changed today to show my college offer? Or do you mean a different portal?

I mean the Cambridge graduate applicant portal. My applicant's page has been displaying " Application Under Review by Department" since I submitted my application on 5th December.

[AHopeful]

If you've already been accepted to the post-grad program, but are waiting to hear on gates cambridge interview, will they send a specific email notifying of interview invite/denial?

I received an email from my department with an offer around the 14th feb then an official offer on the 22nd, from memory my portal only changed once i recieved that second email.

Each department would have different numbers of applications to consider so would likely have different timelines for when you would hear back.

I'm not sure about denials but they send an email invite yes. The email asked me to accept 'no later than the 8th of March' so reserve candidates can be promoted -based on that I would assume the 8th is around the latest applicants would hear

congrats to all who got invited!
so is it only the people from social sciences and arts who are receiving the invites or are there people from the natural sciences who got invited as well?

Social sciences!

[Risate]

I also received an invitation to interview this morning for the Social Sciences panel. Two year ago, I was not offered an interview and did not hear any news or updates from the Trust until after the scholarships had been awarded to successful candidates. Good luck to all!

[ScienceGuy]

I'm a hopeful that would be interviewed by the Biological Sciences Panel! Haven't heard anything yet and hoping they just haven't rolled out yet... Crossing my fingers! Good luck, everyone!

[mg878]

well, looks like everyone who got invited today are from social sciences panel

[prer25]

Got an Invite! Social Sciences Panel, India. All the best to all others who await an invite and the ones who have got it!

[jos123]

did someone get an invite to arts?

[Acervulus]

The Biological Sciences Panel  invitations are also out, I recieved one today. Good luck!

[JCMarks]

Any idea when they stop sending interview requests? I'm assuming it's a safe bet that I am not moving on if I have not heard yet.

[mg878]

I am quoting Colette from Gates who just replied to my email:
 

"Thank you for your email. Successful candidates will hear back by end of this week, early next week."

So, we still have to wait

Hi, yes, I got an invite to arts.

Congrats to those of you who received the invite, and best of luck for those who are still waiting!

Is anyone concerned about wether to do the interview in person or via Skype?

[SMB]

I also received an invitation to interview this morning for the Physical Sciences panel. I wish a good luck to people who are still waiting for invitations for Gates!

Thank you all for sharing updates since I have been following this group for a while.
