http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493 en KCL Application process (Let's keep track together) - LLM GUIDE Discussion Board Sun, 11 Oct 2009 04:45:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#75493 Hey, everybody! I just submitted the online application to KCL yesterday. Has anyone also applied online? Let's use this post to keep track of our applications! I will update my latest status. Please join in! Wed, 21 Oct 2009 19:44:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#75697 I submitted my online application today. Also mailed everything off to LSE (references) and UCL (paper application) today. Now all that’s left to day is wait… Tue, 27 Oct 2009 13:21:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#75810 Hi guys! Can you tell me if your transcripts were in English or if you had to translate them. If you had to translate them, how did you do this? My transcripts are in German. Do KCL and LSE require a transcript of all grades or is it sufficient to provide a transcript of the law degree and the final grade? Thanks Tue, 27 Oct 2009 14:10:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#75812 Hi! I'm not sure about the translation issue. My transcript was original in chinese, but my school provides an english version, so i just submitted the scanned english version. How about do some research on KCL's website? Tue, 27 Oct 2009 14:31:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#75814 Hi. My transcripts were in Portuguese, so I had to get a certified translation into English. I uploaded them altogether on the “myApplication” portal. And I just uploaded the transcripts regarding my law degree. I don’t have another higher education degree, but if you do you should upload it also. But no need to upload anything else before you went into higher education (i.e. high school). KCL has a specific field for that, but it’s not a mandatory one and I don’t really think it’d make much of a difference to let them see your transcripts from high school. Regards, Tue, 27 Oct 2009 19:44:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#75829 Hi. Have you guys checked your “myApplication” portal recently? I’m just curious ‘cause mine is showing a checkbox written “visa sponsorship required” on the “application status” field and I don’t know what to do with that… I’m classified as an overseas student for fee purposes, but even so I don’t need a student visa thus I shouldn't need anything regarding visa. I sent an email to KCL asking what I should do with that checkbox, but I don’t think they’ll be replying to me in the near future. I’m afraid that might postpone the assessment of my application. Any thoughts? Regards, Wed, 28 Oct 2009 09:04:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#75840 Hi, all! I encountered with the same question. I check the box and saved, since Im also a foreign student who needs visa sponsorship. But mine is not on the "application status" field, but on the "application summary" field.... i didn't find any "application status" field... Regards Wed, 28 Oct 2009 16:13:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#75846 Thanks for your replies! That's what I will do now: procure translations of my transcripts, even if KCL writes on the application portal: If your transcripts are not in English, you should attach translations. Regards Thu, 29 Oct 2009 09:40:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#75869 Hey, I have also submitted my application on 16/10 through King's online portal! As I have two references letters in hand, copy of which have already attached with the online application. I have also confirmed that it's deemed to be a valid submission of references. So, what i have to do is Wait and Wait! I only choose IP law in the LLM programmes , hope that I would be in! Tue, 03 Nov 2009 15:52:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76004 Anyone has news form KCL? My status hasnt changed so far... Tue, 03 Nov 2009 17:29:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76009 Nothing so far also. I think it’s going to take at least a couple of weeks to get a decision from them. But I’ll keep checking it daily. Tue, 03 Nov 2009 19:51:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76011 Hi guys, Application submitted on 22 oct, no reply so far (fair enough!). Re checkbox written “visa sponsorship required”, I wrote too and they replied me as follows: "We will contact you regarding this matter if we require more information. In the meantime, please bear with us while we process your application. There is no need, at this stage to send us anything related to Visa Sponsorship" Note I specified to be a EC citizen and should not be asked for a VISA. Keep each other posted in case of news! Tue, 03 Nov 2009 22:06:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76015 I got the same answer from them earlier today about the checkbox. I too specified in my application that I don't need a visa for I've got a European Citizenship... although I'll have to pay the overseas fee, considering I've never actually lived in Europe. Wed, 04 Nov 2009 05:30:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76019 i cannot understand the 'visa sponsorship required' prompt. particularly considering the fact that i am a british citizen..! attempts to contact the admissions office at king's have been futile so far... i submitted my application on the 19th, and am waiting for a reply with a distinct lack of patience! Wed, 04 Nov 2009 15:28:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76031 Hello! My name is Clara and Im from Venezuela. I am about to submit my online application, but I have a question regarding the recommendations: I registered my two recommenders in the online system, but they haven't heard anything about how should they submit the letters. Could anyone tell me how does it work? Thank you so much ! Wed, 04 Nov 2009 18:39:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76039 yes, clara, once you submit your online application, kcl will send out an automated email to your referees giving them instructions on how to upload their references. for this reason it is important that your referees regularly check the email addresses which you submit to kcl. once your referees have uploaded their references, you should receive confirmation emails from kcl. hope this helps! Wed, 04 Nov 2009 19:15:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76041 Thank you so much. So it will be AFTER I submit my application that KCL will ask for the references to them? Thanks!!! Wed, 04 Nov 2009 19:17:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76042 yup! Thu, 05 Nov 2009 09:11:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76059 Hmmm I submitted on Oct 10, nearly 4 weeks. But have not heard anything more than the checkbox from KCL. Let's keep patient. Thu, 12 Nov 2009 10:53:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76264 Hi guys, any news from KCL? Thu, 12 Nov 2009 14:36:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76270 No news so far. Maybe next week. I heard that last year a girl got a response from KCL in 3 weeks. Fri, 13 Nov 2009 02:22:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76288 Yea, I have also submitted my aplication on 16.10, but yet to have a reply. But I have previously sent an email for enquiry, it takes nearly one month to get the reply. So, probably, what we can do is to keep on waiting patiently. btw, I have chosen the intellectual property law regime, anybody will focus on this aspect here as well? Mon, 16 Nov 2009 20:01:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76374 I logged-in earlier today and saw that "myApplication" will be off till 19th November... guess nobody will get a reply until then. Tue, 17 Nov 2009 06:50:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76386 it seems that it was off for maintainance purpose...sigh... Thu, 19 Nov 2009 09:05:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76454 Still nothing...it's getting so depressing... Thu, 19 Nov 2009 09:14:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76455 hey, so i called kcl a few days back to get a rough idea as to when we could expect to hear back from them - and i was told that they have not made any admissions decisions as yet, and that they will probably do so around christmas! that said, who knows? Thu, 19 Nov 2009 10:10:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76459 Thanks a lot for the info ellibertador... That being said, I thought we could expect an earlier reply from KCL since last year some offers were made in early November. Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:05:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76468 feather, i was under the same impression to be honest, and i continue to hope that we do in fact hear back from kcl in the near future! Thu, 19 Nov 2009 14:45:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76477 hey, so i called kcl a few days back to get a rough idea as to when we could expect to hear back from them - and i was told that they have not made any admissions decisions as yet, and that they will probably do so around christmas! that said, who knows? Thanks for sharing that information with us. But its so disappointing! I was expecting to hear from them soon, since I heard about people who got an answer from them in November last year... Actually I thought that they would uptade our status after that maintenance, but... Anyway we have nothing to do but wait! Wed, 25 Nov 2009 19:13:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76631 I also was excepting to hear from them soon. I went to London last week for work and thought I'd drop by UCL, KLC and LSE to see the campus and maybe ask about my application... I saw the campus alright, but I was informed that they couldn't check the status of my application and that I'd just have to do that online. Anyhow, I went online afterwards and nothing had changed... in fact, nothing has changed in the last three weeks, except for LSE that acknowledged receipt of all my supporting document and said that I should except an answer in 8 weeks... that is if I don't end up having a heart attack till then... Thu, 26 Nov 2009 02:42:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76649 I've applied for KLC and I'm still waiting for news. Does anyone know how many places they are offering? Beicon,about LSE, I've heard that only people with a reference from someone that have studied at LSE (or from a professor of the university) would have a chance to be selected. Is it true? I did not applied yet, do you think it's too late? I'm from Brazil, where are you from? Thu, 26 Nov 2009 22:25:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76682 Hi Marina, I've just sent to you a PM so that we can talk a little more about Brazil and stuff. It is not too late to apply, but you had better run for it... Fri, 27 Nov 2009 01:18:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76686 I've saw it and already replied. I'm waiting for one of my referees, but as soon as get the letter I'll send it and finish my application.Thanks a lot for tip. Fri, 27 Nov 2009 02:07:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76687 I also was excepting to hear from them soon. I went to London last week for work and thought I'd drop by UCL, KLC and LSE to see the campus and maybe ask about my application... I saw the campus alright, but I was informed that they couldn't check the status of my application and that I'd just have to do that online. Anyhow, I went online afterwards and nothing had changed... in fact, nothing has changed in the last three weeks, except for LSE that acknowledged receipt of all my supporting document and said that I should except an answer in 8 weeks... that is if I don't end up having a heart attack till then... Hey, when did you submit your applciation?! I have also applied for these three uni , also qmul and submitted mine in the end of October. I just received two mails from UCL in the early November, and the acknowledgement emails from LSE, save that, no news from KCL at all. Mon, 30 Nov 2009 20:36:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76794 I don't remember the day, but it was at the beginning of October... so there's been more than a month... and I've almost had a heart attack earlier today when I saw that my application to Cambridge had been withdrawn due to the lack of supporting documents... I've sent the bloody documents two weeks ago and they received it on 24th November, but they haven't acknowledge it yet... called the Board of Graduate studies and they said that if I have indeed sent the documents, they will re-activate my application in the next days. I've also applied to QM (also at the beginning of October), but I haven't heard anything from them. Somehow I thought KCL and QM wouldn't take this long to reply. Mon, 30 Nov 2009 21:57:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76796 Beicon, I have received an offer from QM dated on November the 6th...you should hear from them soon Tue, 01 Dec 2009 02:26:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76806 Hey, feather, when did you apply for QM?! I have yet to receive any reply from them! my application is made on 30/10~ Tue, 01 Dec 2009 09:01:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76814 I applied mid october. Their letter took fifteen days to cross the Channel, so I don't know where you are but this might have an influence. Tue, 01 Dec 2009 09:09:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76815 Then our application should be made more or less the same time. I am in Hong Kong, maybe it causes further delay~ Tue, 01 Dec 2009 14:28:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76829 I applied mid october. Their letter took fifteen days to cross the Channel, so I don't know where you are but this might have an influence. Feather, did you apply to QM online or by post? Tue, 01 Dec 2009 15:48:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76832 I submitted everything online, including the references Tue, 01 Dec 2009 18:19:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76839 Hey guys, I just wanted to know if you had the same problem. One of my referees told me that he could not enter the referee portal because the link did not work. KCL told him to contact me in their email in case that happens. Any suggestions what I should do now? Thanks for your help. Tue, 01 Dec 2009 20:09:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76846 Hey Littledoll, the KCL's system is under maintenance and the application site is unavaible since november 28th (and still is) so this is probably why your referee can't send the letter. They said that the deadline changed to December 17th. Good luck. Tue, 01 Dec 2009 23:34:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76853 I'm in (but I applied last year and then deferred). W00tle. Wed, 02 Dec 2009 09:29:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76863 Hello guys! I want to apply but can't. It says: "Due to system maintenance, myApplication will be unavailable from 11.30am (GMT) Saturday, 28 November, 2009 until approximately 12.00pm (GMT) Tuesday 1 December, 2009. myApplication will be unavailable and applicants using the system should save any data and log out before this time. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. 30 November deadline update If you were applying for any programme with a 30 November deadline, please note that this has been extended to Thursday 17 December. MyApplication will be operating again from Tuesday 1 December so applicants will not in any way be disadvantaged." As I know, Tuesday 1 December was yesterday... Please, tell me what to do, I'm having a panic!!! Wed, 02 Dec 2009 10:06:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76864 Hey Maryasha, I am with you! Apparently this maintenance also affects the referee's portal because my second referee still cannot post his reference. It's driving me crazy because I have submitted everything about a week ago. Does anyone know who we can call? Wed, 02 Dec 2009 10:09:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76865 Well, I'm not alone:) Wed, 02 Dec 2009 12:39:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76867 It's working now!!! Good luck!=) Wed, 02 Dec 2009 13:31:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76871 In relation to QM, yesterday I got an offer, my letter is also dated Nov 06 th. I am based in Brazil. Regarding KCL, the website is working again, but my status hasnt changed. I am starting to believe that they ll just start to make decisions over the Christmas break. Thu, 03 Dec 2009 13:23:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76892 Hi Judy, Congrs for QM's offer! I am still waiting to hear also from them. I sent an e-mail for update a couple of weeks ago but no reply yet. These application procedures are getting annoying more and more. And also I cannot understand why my home address is so unreacheable... UCL letter of 30 Oct is still missing and perhaps also the QM's one is travelling throughout the world... damn! Thu, 03 Dec 2009 14:53:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76894 Well, I just checked my KCL status and it has changed, finally! I got an unconditional offer!!! I suggest you guys to check yours as well. Good luck everybody! Thu, 03 Dec 2009 14:57:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76895 Jude, congrats!!!!! Mine not... depression...Let me know your decision. Take care and go celebrating again!!! By the way...when did you appliy? Thu, 03 Dec 2009 16:36:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76905 Judy Law, Did KCL ever acknowledge your completed application, or did they just update your status online, because I haven't even received any acknowledgment from them yet. When did you apply? Thu, 03 Dec 2009 20:10:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76916 Hi guys, I applied to KCL about a month ago and today, I received an unconditional offer as well. This is very exciting news as I was unsure if my undergraduate results were good enough. They require a response by 3rd January. I am still awaiting the result of my application to UCL, and I suppose I have a big decision to make. Thu, 03 Dec 2009 20:57:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76917 Hi everyone, I applied to King's college on the 5th November. I also got an unconditional offer to King's. I have to reply by the 20th of December though. Thu, 03 Dec 2009 21:33:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76919 I've applied on 5th November, too (also the references were submittet at this date). But no response yet... What do you think does this mean? I haven't fullfilled the language requirements yet. Congrats to all of you that have been offered a place!!! Fri, 04 Dec 2009 11:52:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76926 I received an offer yesterday... I've accepted it, but I'll probably have to decline it later, considering I rang UCL today and they said I should be receiving an unconditional offer letter in the next days. Fri, 04 Dec 2009 11:54:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76928 Just wondering, beicon, why you intend on choosing UCL over KCL? I might have the same choice and am considering which to go for. Fri, 04 Dec 2009 13:16:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76934 Yeah when did u all apply??? I had put in my papers via online on 2.11.09 and still the page says mine is under consideration???? Fri, 04 Dec 2009 13:41:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76936 I submitted my application on the 28th of october and haven't received an answer either... Fri, 04 Dec 2009 14:08:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#76937 Rbr and Beicon I am in the same boat as you guys, considering UCl and KCL, maybe we could create a post to discuss it, if we could hear from peolple who are already studying in those unis... I heard that although UCL is better ranked, KCL is better at commercial law (the specialisation I wanna persue). Wed, 09 Dec 2009 01:49:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77051 Dear all, I've been admitted to UCL LLM (int'l commercial law). I'm sure you are going to hear some great news too before X-mas. Cheers! Wed, 09 Dec 2009 04:31:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77055 Hey Congratulations. Btw when did you apply to UCL??? Wed, 09 Dec 2009 22:15:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77089 I applied at the beginning of October... Fri, 11 Dec 2009 13:58:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77157 Any news from KCL?? My status still says "received and beeing processed". That sucks! Fri, 11 Dec 2009 14:04:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77158 Mine doesn't even say so... Magiur, I guess they haven't yet started delivering conditional offers. We must be in the next pool Fri, 11 Dec 2009 14:28:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77160 I have applied 2nd of October still being processed. I am wating for a conditional offer due to lack of english score. Has any one got reject or conditional offer? Fri, 11 Dec 2009 21:21:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77167 feather and efegenit That sounds reasonable. I hope you're right! I am waiting for a conditional offer, too. Haven't achieved the language requirements yet... I very hope to have an answer before x-mas. Would interest me too if they have rejected someone or made a conditional offer. Regards! Mon, 14 Dec 2009 12:02:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77254 No updates on my status. Any one have any information? Mon, 14 Dec 2009 13:21:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77260 Nothing! As already said I applied on 5th November and since then "received and beeing processed". Most probably it's like feather said: They are waiting with sending out conditional offers! At least I hope so! Mon, 14 Dec 2009 19:01:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77280 Hey, first time writing in the blog although I have been reading it for a couple of months. I have just received a conditional offer on language requirements from KCL. I called last week and they told me they took longer to start making conditional offers plus the system kept on crashing without stopping. I guess u should be hearing from them very soon (before Xmas hopefully). FYI, I still didn´t get the email but the offer was announced through myApplication, so I would advice you to keep an eye on it. Good luck to everyone Mon, 14 Dec 2009 19:21:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77281 Hi Morticia, Great! When did you apply? Mon, 14 Dec 2009 19:27:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77282 I applied to King´s on October 11. I am sure u will have some news very soon. I guess UCL may do the same thing since I applied the first week of November and they informed not to expect and answer before January. I think there is nothing to worry about, they just take longer for overseas without IELTS. Mon, 14 Dec 2009 19:46:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77283 My application was complete on 29 October so it is fair to think that i will get an answer in 15 days. Tue, 15 Dec 2009 20:29:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77337 Anyone else who got a conditional offer?? My status didn't change since weeks (received and being processed). Regards Tue, 15 Dec 2009 20:39:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77338 I sometimes think that it would be great to have ANY news on myApplication page regarding my status, like on DHL web-site: received - is on the Graduate Officer's table - Graduate Officer has looked it through - Graduate Officer has put it into his bag - Graduate Officer has brought it to the Admissions Office - Admissions Office was so excited by your application that would be unable to take any decision within 2 weeks... and so on))) Tue, 15 Dec 2009 22:11:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77350 Oh yeah! You're completely right! That would be great!! I hate the waiting time and the uncertainty... Hope they will give an answer soon. A posivite answer, if possible :-) Wed, 16 Dec 2009 10:37:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77368 I have emailed the Admissions Department as my application status here is always empty. And I am told that the online Graduate Admissions Portal had been undergoing routine maintenance over the past three weeks and they had been unable to access the system. It explained for those delay. Wed, 16 Dec 2009 10:59:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77371 Today is the birthday of my application to KCL...8 weeks... Wed, 16 Dec 2009 11:34:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77374 haha, Happy Birthday, Feather's KCL Application~ I hope your birthday wish will come true then. Wed, 16 Dec 2009 15:13:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77380 Anyone have to send in a reference letter by mail? One of my referees had trouble with the online system (I think he couldn't get through his university's firewall) and had to mail it in. It's been a couple of weeks and KCL is still showing on their online system that they have not received the letter, but my application status is "Received and Being Processed," so I'm not sure if they received it and did not update the reference page or if it was somehow lost in the mail and will ultimately hold things up. Anyway, wondering if anyone else had to do something similar and what their experience was. Wed, 16 Dec 2009 23:32:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77406 I sent one letter by post... but it was an additional letter of reference so I don't even know if they've looked at it... If I were you I'd ring the admissions office and try getting some information on your letter. If that doesn't work, maybe you could ask your referee to disclose the letter to you so that you can upload it onto the myapplication portal. It'd be much easier for everybody and that way you can ensure that you letter get sent to KCL. In fact, KCL and QM are the first big ones in England to allow the applicant to upload the letter themselves. Congratulations to them on that... it means they trust the applicant to do the right thing. Thu, 17 Dec 2009 14:50:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77425 Thanks. I will probably give it another few days and then try to contact them, just to give some extra time to factor in holiday mail (which may very well be slowing everything down). It also took like a week for all of my stuff to get to Toronto, which is really not that far away from me, so I think the mail system may just be screwy at the moment... Fri, 18 Dec 2009 10:46:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77464 Well, I've been refused a place at King's. I had applied mid-October. Fri, 18 Dec 2009 10:59:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77466 I'm sorry about that. That sucks! Can you tell me how and when did you get the response?? Fri, 18 Dec 2009 11:15:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77468 Received an email informing me that a decision had been made. "Myapplication" status says I do not meet the requirements. I assume I am too young. Fri, 18 Dec 2009 12:15:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77471 I've just this minute called KCL. They said I can expect an answer in the new year, without exact indication of the week. Fri, 18 Dec 2009 14:03:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77475 When did you apply? I was just wondering how long it really takes because my status hasn't changed for quite a while. Fri, 18 Dec 2009 14:44:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77478 Feather. Sorry to hear that. I got that same message yesterday -- and in my case I doubt it's because I am too young. Good luck with your other applications. Fri, 18 Dec 2009 14:54:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77479 @ littledoll I've applied on 5th November. Quite a long time ago... If in the end the answer is a positive one, than it doesn't matter how long I'm waiting... Hope so! Fri, 18 Dec 2009 15:51:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77482 Hi everyone! it's my first time writing here and I think it is really encouraging talking with people who have also applied and are in the same anxious position! :) I submitted my online application on November 11 and of course I am still waiting! Given the fact that I applied a little late possibly I have to wait for an answer until next year, as well! Fri, 18 Dec 2009 17:40:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77485 Got a conditional offer! Applied on 22 Oct. Good luck to everyone Fri, 18 Dec 2009 17:56:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77486 Congratulations! :))) Hope that we will also hear from them soon! Mon, 21 Dec 2009 09:15:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77533 Congratulations to all who have already received an offer. I am also bit anxious because I happen to apply to KCL on 18th Dec. Am i too late in submitting the applications?? Mon, 21 Dec 2009 10:06:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77535 I don't think it's too late. As long as you have a brightful application, they'll consider it. I have applied in th end of October but the box of Applciation Status in myApplication webpage is empty all the time, i wonder whether it's normal or not?! the application page only asked me whether a student visa was required. I have written to the Admissions Department, it just told me that the system has been experienced technical error before. So, is it everything back to normal now?! Mon, 21 Dec 2009 11:07:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77538 Even I had this problem of the Application status box being empty except for the visa thing. I e-mailed them and though they did not reply back, they updated my status. Mon, 21 Dec 2009 13:43:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77544 Am not sure whether my application is bright or dull :D ...but i do have all the ingredients that matches their parameters. First Class degree in law, IELTS of 8 overall, internships, only 7 months of work experience(although i believe that wont count much for an academic degree like LLM), decent SoP. The only issue is that i applied pretty late, i.e. only in the last week. Tue, 22 Dec 2009 02:19:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77572 maybe i have to check with them again. A First Class applicant will be eye-catching enough, so don't worry! you will be in! Tue, 22 Dec 2009 08:40:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77574 thnx for the moral...i sincerely hope it does happen as you say Tue, 22 Dec 2009 16:58:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/75493/last#77588 I have known a friend who applied at March and accepted. I do not know his grades but he had five years of experience. Any way applying early increases your chances , but applying late does not mean that they will not accept you:)
