http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601 en LSE decisions - LLM GUIDE Discussion Board Mon, 14 Jan 2008 13:20:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38601 Hello, LSE has had my application since 12 November, and i'm still waiting... Has anyone heard back from LSE? I have offers from UCL and King's and need to accept one soon... Thanks Mon, 14 Jan 2008 13:39:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38605 Capa: I submitted my application on October the 30th and received an unconditional offer on December 11th. Mon, 14 Jan 2008 18:30:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38610 I submitted near the end of November 2007 - still waiting, but I should hear soon. Tue, 15 Jan 2008 05:29:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38620 Hi Capa, I would call them if I were you. It seems like a long wait. LSE usually makes decisions within 8 weeks. Tue, 15 Jan 2008 13:17:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38643 Hi, I intend to apply to LSE but I have a little difficulty in filling out the application sheet. I know my question does not really fit here, but since some of you got already positive answers from LSE you might help me. How extensive were your personal statements? And does anyone have an idea what to fill in hear :"Degree type and class/grade of degree in the standard format of your degree eg Economics BA (Hons) 2:1; GPA 3.7/4.0; A+; 90%; or 1.5/5.0" if I have a German first state exam? Thanks very much for your help! Tue, 15 Jan 2008 14:49:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38649 Thumy, My personal statement was 1200 words. As for the degree type, I really have no idea where your german first state would fall. Best, Tue, 15 Jan 2008 16:06:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38662 Argo, thanks very much! Thu, 17 Jan 2008 14:40:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38759 Thanks. I gave LSE a call, and they're on it. I guess I just need to wait. Did anyone apply on or after 12 November and get an offer/rejection/waiting list? Thu, 17 Jan 2008 16:26:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38763 I applied November 29th and I'm still waiting. my guess is - because our '8 weeks' takes in the christmas vacation period, we might have to wait a little longer than applicants who don't get caught in a holiday period. I'm glad you phoned them - I just think we have to sit tight. Good luck. Thu, 17 Jan 2008 21:18:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38780 Hi .... today my application status reads: A decision has been made on this choice and is being processed. Processing involves checking by a senior member of staff, and occasionally verification of one or more details by your Department. Most decisions will be finalised and appear here within one or two working days (remember to allow for weekends!), however if we require clarification from the Department your status will remain unchanged for longer periods. No further information is available until all checks have been completed, and the decision will be posted here first. Can anyone tell me ....what can i expect after this ????? Thu, 17 Jan 2008 21:30:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38781 Hi, I had that message the day before I received an admissions offer + graduate merit award. So fingers crossed and good luck! Thu, 17 Jan 2008 22:58:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38784 when did you apply bhavna? Fri, 18 Jan 2008 14:19:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38803 Hi, I got this message too and the next day I finnally got an offer! Good luck! Who is going to LSE? Best, Catarina Fri, 18 Jan 2008 16:01:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38808 My status changed to unconditional offer two days ago, and my application was finalized on December 2nd. However, I submitted my application some 10 days earlier, but my referees didn't submit the references untill that date. Another thing is that I happily noticed that they accepted a copy of the TOEFL score-report. It feels good not sending money to the overcharging TOEFL-people... I hope this is of help. Fri, 18 Jan 2008 17:15:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38814 Hi .... Still waiting ....don't know when they will respond... Capa ....had applied ....early ....Nov sometime.... Mon, 21 Jan 2008 10:46:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38883 Hi, any progress at anyone who was put on the waiting list by LSE? Mon, 21 Jan 2008 14:33:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38886 Hi, they put me on waiting list. what does it mean? is there any chance? what shall i expect? Thanks Mon, 21 Jan 2008 15:28:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38888 I havent heard anything from them. Think they have forgotten me, or not. I applied rather late, 5. November. Is there anyone who applied that late who have heard anything? Mon, 21 Jan 2008 16:31:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38889 Well I actually applied around mid November and about two/three weeks ago I was put on the waiting list. They have said I should expect to hear from them within the next 6 weeks or so. Would like to get an offer but I'm not too anxious as have received offers from KCL and UCL already. So I'm now waiting for LSE and Cambridge. Mon, 21 Jan 2008 16:56:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38891 I got an offer from KCL as well, and they were very fast! I submitted my online application 27. December, and posted my transcripts on new years eve. Got the offer on 9. January! LSE is obviously a bit slower... Mon, 21 Jan 2008 17:27:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38893 Offer today... finally! :-) Mon, 21 Jan 2008 18:11:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38899 "I havent heard anything from them. Think they have forgotten me, or not. I applied rather late, 5. November. Is there anyone who applied that late who have heard anything?" I have to correct myself: I submitted my application to LSE 21. November. And since Capa submitted his application 12. November and got his offer today, there is obviously some activity at the admissionoffice... Mon, 21 Jan 2008 22:42:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38907 Way to go Capa!! Congratulations! My '8 weeks' is up on friday (if you count the christmas holidays as part of it), so here's hoping. I really want LSE - it looks great. Best of luck to everyone!!!! Mon, 21 Jan 2008 23:48:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38911 Thanks, it was certainly an anxious wait but i'm happy I have offers now from all three. It was hard to "rank" them prior to these offers but now, being unbiased, I know LSE is probably the place to be for a London LLM. Best wishes to everyone Wed, 23 Jan 2008 16:48:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#38998 Capa, How much time were you on the waiting list?? It's been 6 weeks already and I don't have any news yet.... Wed, 23 Jan 2008 17:07:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39001 I submitted my application on Nov. 28th, and I received a condition offer today :) Probably all those submitted their application in that period will hear soon... Wed, 23 Jan 2008 17:48:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39005 Capa, How much time were you on the waiting list?? It's been 6 weeks already and I don't have any news yet.... have been on the waiting for 6 weeks now. Somewhere it is said that it takes 6 weeks for the application to be reconsidered but somewhere it is said that it is 8 weeks. So I think that we have to wait little more. But honestly I thing that all those people who were not accepted were put on the waiting list. I wonder if someone´s application has been rejected... Wed, 23 Jan 2008 23:46:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39021 Hello all, I haven't even submitted my application yet, hope to submit it by the end of the week. Does anyone have an idea, how the chance are for someone applying so late? I looked up on the LSE homepage, where it says that they are still open for the LL.M.... Hope for all of you to get in and maybe see you someday... Thu, 24 Jan 2008 00:33:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39025 Capa, How much time were you on the waiting list?? It's been 6 weeks already and I don't have any news yet.... hey - i was never on the waiting list so cannot help, sorry. i know it is a busy time there now so it might take longer than specified. hold on tight Thu, 24 Jan 2008 23:57:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39082 Banker, I actually think they put on the waiting list the people that applied too early (however, we can always be rejected!) My friend was put on the waiting list of another faculty and after six weeks she got an unconditional offer and a $10,000 merit award... Fri, 25 Jan 2008 03:44:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39087 Yes, that's right, so just because it is taking longer than others doe snot mean anything. My response took a while, but I got an unconditional offer + Merit Award so its all good! Chin up guys! :-) Fri, 25 Jan 2008 13:10:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39097 just to update waitlisted people - today I was said by LSE that none of the waitlisted files have been returned for re-consideration yet. Fri, 25 Jan 2008 14:08:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39099 I applied on November 29th (8 weeks yesterday!) and my application is still displaying 'under consideration by the department'! The wait is killing me! Does anyone think this means anything? Congratulations to all those accepted, and best of luck to those on the waitlist. Fri, 25 Jan 2008 17:26:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39108 I sent my app. on december 3rd and I was put on the waiting list today. That is probably because LSE thinks I'm not good enough to receive an offer and not bad enough to be rejected. It's a guess. Fri, 25 Jan 2008 17:44:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39109 yes, waitlist is alot more promising than rejection. if it was 'bad enough' to be rejected, they would have done so. Fri, 25 Jan 2008 19:51:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39115 I have called UCL's admissions office today. They told me that at least with them you can always accept the offer and still decline it later on if you receive another (better) offer. Sun, 27 Jan 2008 15:36:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39195 I have been accepted on the condition that I get at least a B-average, which I think it is not possible for me not to achieve, unless I fail my final thesis, which I won't. I have received scholarships at Oxford and Fulbright, thought, so I think LSE will be plan C. Mon, 28 Jan 2008 17:17:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39244 Anyone else in to LSE? The wait is just about KILLING me! Ps - Congrats Humber. What are you doing at Oxford? Tue, 29 Jan 2008 09:08:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39274 Thanks! I don't know whether I will be going to Oxford or to the U.S., I just know that I want to focus on interantional law. Wed, 30 Jan 2008 01:35:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39322 The wait is killing me....LSE had my app since the 14th of November and I have not heard anything since (except for a few standard e-mails)....not even been put on the waiting list... Good luck to all of you, Decideus Wed, 30 Jan 2008 06:04:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39341 Hello, I went thru the specialism of UCL, LSE, KCL; it appears UCL has a clearly thorough list of specializations. I found both LSE and KCL's to be quite mangled and vague. Can anyone provide their insights on this. Can LSE be more hyped internationally than UCL? Thanks, Ohima Wed, 30 Jan 2008 14:44:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39374 Any news from those who were put on the waiting list? Been there for 7 weeks and no progress so far........ Wed, 30 Jan 2008 19:25:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39392 I'm in - unconditional! Best of luck to all those still waiitng. HJ. Thu, 31 Jan 2008 02:21:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39403 congrats! Thu, 31 Jan 2008 11:25:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39430 congrats too! Fri, 01 Feb 2008 07:27:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39498 hi I applied to LSE on 13th December and my status reads wait listed.Is there any chance of me getting in inspite of applying so late.Although i've already got a call from Kings and i didnt apply in UCL but LSE would be my priority incase i get an offer. Fri, 01 Feb 2008 19:37:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39535 I honestly don't know. I'd accept Kings, then risk trying to 'unnaccept' if you get a place at LSE. Best of luck, HJ. Sat, 02 Feb 2008 02:08:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39553 hi I applied to LSE on 13th December and my status reads wait listed.Is there any chance of me getting in inspite of applying so late.Although i've already got a call from Kings and i didnt apply in UCL but LSE would be my priority incase i get an offer. Hey, I don't if this helps. I wrote an email to LSE on 15th January asking if there is still a possibility in applying and I got the answer that they are still open for applications. So I assume that in any case applications arriving until the middle of January have a chance. Good luck! Sun, 03 Feb 2008 14:35:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39594 I submitted my application on December 5. The eigt-week deadline is long past. Its extremely unnerving to know that even the waitlist is eluding me. Mon, 04 Feb 2008 08:57:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39624 I was told by LSE that the two weeks around Xmas are excluded from the 8 weeks´ period. So with Xmas it is actually 10 weeks´period. Wed, 06 Feb 2008 02:00:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39750 Wow! All these posts look very discouraging, because I applied only on Jan.25. Nevertheless, I still hope that there is a chance for admission. I am a European attorney who got LL.M in the US, then got admitted there in two states and now applied for LSE LL.M. It was my understanding that under circumstances, I don't need to submit TOEFL results. Can anybody who were in the same situation and whose application has been reviewed, tell me if I am correct? If not, I will have to search for my old results. This question is for those who have already received offers: Do you think LSE puts any weight into work experience? In case with US LL.M programs, too many years of diverse experience were less appealing than 1-2 years of specialized experience. Thanks. Wed, 06 Feb 2008 02:06:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39751 Jan 25th??? wow! Does anybody know if LSE is still receiving applications?? I thought they had finished receiving them... but I must be wrong. Shumelka, I think you have good chances for yourse is a truly interesting background... good luck!! Wed, 06 Feb 2008 07:30:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39759 Hey...Got an "unconditional offer" status yesterday...My application was "complete" on Nov 20, so that wait was a killer! Big relief though... Along with that, I got a message to the effect that - "It has been determined, based on the standard of your application etc...that you are eligible to apply online for a Graduate Support Scheme..." Anyone else who has got an intimation like that?? My guess would be that the very best candidates get an outright grant with their admission offers, but others like me might get a kind of second chance.... All the best to those still waiting! Wed, 06 Feb 2008 16:18:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39783 I got the same msg Fri, 08 Feb 2008 11:56:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#39911 I applied to LSE on 9th Jan. After waiting for this long, the status is waitlisted. I called them up and they have said they will get back to me in a couple of weeks time. But then, couple of weeks is a debatable issue! :-( Sun, 10 Feb 2008 11:59:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40029 My application hasn't been processed yet as they are waiting for my transcripts. I applied on Jan. 25. 08. Is it too late? When should I expect to hear back? Mon, 11 Feb 2008 12:24:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40077 I applied on December 5. No news at all. My nerves are getting all bundled up. I don't know if its safe being optimistic anymore. Mon, 11 Feb 2008 12:31:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40078 hang tight - I applied only a few days before you (November 30th) and I still got in. Best of luck!! Mon, 11 Feb 2008 12:39:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40079 You are kind hjscotland. But its getting worse with every passing day. Even anticipating the waitlist is not a happy thought. When did you hear from them? Mon, 11 Feb 2008 13:00:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40080 it took me almost 9.5 weeks to get a response. the wait was horrible, I agree! Unfortunately there is nothing you can do. Mon, 11 Feb 2008 15:03:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40087 to hjscotland i received documentation complete notification on 13th december and im about to complete 8 weeks day after.LSE has sent me a letter around 1 st february saying i am waitlisted and it'll take another 8 weeks.so does tht mean i need to wait for another 2 months from now????the wait is killing..... Mon, 11 Feb 2008 15:05:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40088 Has LSE waitlisted everybody who applied or have they sent rejections also??? Mon, 11 Feb 2008 15:49:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40090 Hi attorney, I personally think that everyone who is not accepted is waitlisted. I have been waitlisted almost for 9 weeks. But the two weeks around Xmas are excluded from the period stated for reconsideration of waitlisted applications as I was told by LSE. After all places have been distributed LSE announces to waitlisted people that unfortunately there are no places left. I think they just do not want to reject applicants and so they do it in this way. But on the other hand I noticed on this forum that a year ago one waitlisted guy had been offered place. So still there is a chance!!! Wed, 13 Feb 2008 08:19:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40185 With due consideration to the holiday season, even my ten-week period got over today. Still nothing! Sat, 16 Feb 2008 19:35:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40425 anyone waitlisted with any news? been waitlisted fo 10 weeks and no progress yet..... Sat, 16 Feb 2008 23:56:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40430 Hi Guys, I dont know how much of a consolation this is going to be, I know what must be going through everyone's mind at this point of time. I am at present doing an LLM at LSE and I must tell you guys that sometimes things happens very slowly here, they might take some time to make a decision, sometimes considering the large volume of application that they recieve. I am sure everyone must hear something by the midweek of march. Dont lose hope guys, there is still enough time before they make the decisions. Last year many of my friends heard back fomr them towards the end of march and some had got only conditional offers initally, but they are all here now. If you guys need any help specifically, do not hesitate to contact me. Mon, 18 Feb 2008 15:02:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40495 Hi mrindia I haven't been able to come up with any plausible reason as to why have they side-tracked my application completely. I applied on the 5th of December which was more than ten weeks ago. There are people with decisions who applied in mid/late December. A waitlisted person above applied on the 9th of January. Finally, i wrote to them today. The unknown is driving me up the wall. Do you think there can be any explanation? Mon, 18 Feb 2008 23:21:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40520 I applied on December 10 and haven't received decion yet, so don't worry that much. Thu, 21 Feb 2008 16:45:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40732 Finally...LSE has had my app since 14th of Nov 2007... I called today to find out that I have a conditional offer...finally. All the best to the best. A Thu, 21 Feb 2008 17:01:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40737 Same here. I have been on the waiting list since dec. 13th. I got an unconditional offer today. Good luck to you all! For those on the waiting list, there is still hope!!! Sun, 24 Feb 2008 15:34:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40947 Hey guys, does anybody know the procedure for what happens if you fail to meet your conditions. is it likley they will still take you? Sun, 24 Feb 2008 19:52:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40955 englishboy - phone grad admissions and ask them. Mon, 25 Feb 2008 11:25:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#40997 I applied towards the end of Jan and got a letter last week informing me that I've been waitlisted. I just got a letter from my Uni letting me know that I was in the Top 15% of my class. Do you think I should forward this to LSE so as to help my application or do you guys think not to bother? Mon, 25 Feb 2008 18:10:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41025 Hi g_osinuga, I'm actually unable to really help you with your query. But personally I would send it, sounds really good top 15%. I applied in late January too, but haven't heard anything yet. If you don't mind telling, when did you submit your application? Thanks Tue, 26 Feb 2008 04:47:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41067 And here we go. I applied on Jan.25, then changed my essay several days later, and today found out that I'm on waitlist. The whole process took 4 weeks, but has produced an unsatisfactory result. Now I have a different kind of agony:-( Who knows how much time it will take... Tue, 26 Feb 2008 15:25:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41112 Thumy, I submitted my application Jan 26th so I was quite surprised that they replied early, thats probably because they put me on the waiting list. Where else did u apply to and have you heard anything back from anyone yet? I applied to LSE, UCL and Oxford. Wed, 27 Feb 2008 00:51:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41157 Hey cutestchic, I'm getting a bit nervous since most of you heard back already. I submitted my application on Jan 25th. I applied also to Cambridge, UCL, KCL and Queen Mary, but I have sent the others -except Cambridge- only around Feb 10th. So I think it might take some time. Did you hear from UCL? Wed, 27 Feb 2008 17:36:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41205 Dear All: it seems that I have find my club :) as I also have applied to LSE on 30 January 2008. I am under consideration and they did not contact me... I do not hope to hear from them until the beginning of April, to be honest... As I understood from this discussion, quite a few people got responses from them during the estimated 8 weeks time gap... so I think it will be a loooong waiting. Wed, 27 Feb 2008 17:41:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41206 Thumy, I submitted my application Jan 26th so I was quite surprised that they replied early, thats probably because they put me on the waiting list. Where else did u apply to and have you heard anything back from anyone yet? I applied to LSE, UCL and Oxford. I submitted the complete application to UCL and within 4 days they have sent we the aknowledgement letter, that stated the exact day by which they will make their decision on my admission. Though, I still have to wait for 2 weeks... Thu, 28 Feb 2008 12:37:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41250 Thumy, I applied to UCL last year and got accepted but deferred my entry which they were very good about. I've not heard back from Oxford and to be honest, I doubt it will be favourable. Fingers crossed though!! What specialisation are you interested in? Thu, 28 Feb 2008 18:50:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41289 Offer finally. :) All those hours of anticipation didn't go waste. So long. Thu, 28 Feb 2008 22:58:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41300 Thumy, I applied to UCL last year and got accepted but deferred my entry which they were very good about. I've not heard back from Oxford and to be honest, I doubt it will be favourable. Fingers crossed though!! What specialisation are you interested in? I would like to go for tax and corporate law. And you? All this waiting is killing.... Sun, 02 Mar 2008 12:24:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41505 Does not sound too good at all, having completed my application on 29th November 2007 it is still under consideration by the department... I'd really wish to hear soon, it's already 12 weeks now. Then again, my professor, who is a LSE alumni himself, said he would not expect an answer prior to Mid-March. So I am still confident about it ;) Mon, 03 Mar 2008 11:35:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41559 Thumy, I applied to UCL last year and got accepted but deferred my entry which they were very good about. I've not heard back from Oxford and to be honest, I doubt it will be favourable. Fingers crossed though!! What specialisation are you interested in? I would like to go for tax and corporate law. And you? All this waiting is killing.... Banking law and financial regulation. Tell me about it! (the wait I mean). Its like everything is on hold till I know where I'm heading. Btw, congrats to the person who just got offered!!! Mon, 03 Mar 2008 14:06:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41566 Hi .... today my application status reads: A decision has been made on this choice and is being processed. Processing involves checking by a senior member of staff, and occasionally verification of one or more details by your Department. Most decisions will be finalised and appear here within one or two working days (remember to allow for weekends!), however if we require clarification from the Department your status will remain unchanged for longer periods. No further information is available until all checks have been completed, and the decision will be posted here first. Can anyone tell me ....what can i expect after this ????? First of all Hallo to everyone, coz it's my first post here :) and secondly, did any of you lads got rejected or waitlisted after receiveing this msg from LSE? I got this today and as most of you I'm bit nervous... Please let me know.

Maybe right now they are finalising your offer ;) Good luck to everyone, who is waiting! Maria Cheers, hope you're right!... I think you will be admitted. I wish all of us to be ;) I have read on some discussion board (sorry, do not remember the exact one) that such message usually appears before they will send you an offer... What can they finalise in the reqection letter? :) Mon, 03 Mar 2008 17:01:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41577 That would be great indeed - I got the same message today ;) We'll see in a few days if you are right anyway. Mon, 03 Mar 2008 17:47:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41583 At least the change of the status indicates that somebody is still alive there ;) Mon, 03 Mar 2008 19:51:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41589 Yup you were right! It's a msg preceding an offer (at least in my case it was)! Good luck to everyone :) Mon, 03 Mar 2008 21:28:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41599 Just want to make sure everyone is aware that you CAN check your LSE application status online. If you are admitted, you can actually print out your offer certificate and everything...

I got this today and as most of you I'm bit nervous... Please let me know. Well, I received the same email today. I'm on the waiting list for 5 weeks. I hope to have good news in a couple of days. My husband got the same message one day before he was offered a place. Tue, 04 Mar 2008 13:46:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41652 I received a conditional offer today. Thank god!! Now, I have to get a higher score on TOEFL. I got only 617 on pBT. Is there anybody in the same situation? Tue, 04 Mar 2008 15:38:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41661 Yup you were right! It's a msg preceding an offer (at least in my case it was)!

Wed, 05 Mar 2008 11:35:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41693 Would anyone know what is LSE's student intake for their LLM programme? Fri, 07 Mar 2008 15:35:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41933 Intake/applications in 2006: 250/1,263 that is the information they give on their website. Fri, 07 Mar 2008 16:13:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#41935 G.A. Law, If I were you, I'd take the IELTS. I got 105 on the Toefl iBT, 2 pts below the 107 required. In the IELTS, I got an 8 when LSE asks for 7. IELTS is less tiring and you speak with a human being instead of speaking to a computer... Goo luck! Mon, 10 Mar 2008 19:35:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#42133 Today LSE closed LLM program for "home" students... how much time will it take them to close program for overseas students?.. Tue, 11 Mar 2008 00:04:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/38601/last#42172 I have also seen that they have closed the programme for home applicants, what is that suppose to mean... that they are not admitting more home/EU students or that they are not considering anymore applications from these? I applied on January 30th and heard nothing yet... what's happening?
