Has anyone heard from either of these UK schools? MPhil, DPhil, PhD? Anyone have any info?

The term just finished yesterday at Oxford, so maybe they'll reach their final decisions soon? In any case, if the admission procedure is still the same, then don't expect to hear anything before March 16th?

Or have they changed the admission procedure?

About UK schools?Forget them!I did my MSc in the UK and I know pretty much!
Cambridge is still back in the Keynes (good if you want to do history!) era and Oxford....I think is the same.
If you are interesting for a UK school then you should try only LSE and pehaps LBS

Sorry to hear that,italos.

I did not get any information about my application for Cam PhD after submitting my application last Dec.

One famous Cam professor said he is interested at me and would like to interview me if get passed by the ad. The secretary told me that if there is any news about me, she will inform me. However, I have received nothing.

I am worried about my Cam application which is one of my last two hopes.
What should I do now? Is there anyone got the interviews from Cam?

I applied for MPhil Option A in Cambridge. I haven't heard anything. I've heard of one or two people who have been offered option B. I've also heard of one or two people who've had their application put "on hold" untill March/April and they haven't heard anything yet. These are people who specifically emailed Cambridge to enquire, well one of them is at least.
