Their dual application process fails if they waitlist us without ever forwarding our applications to the second preference departments. I have a suspicion this might be there way of justfying not forwarding people to second choices. Oh...we WL you with 250 other candidates. Good luck. Still, I think that more rejections are bound to come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgsexogenous Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Anyone have a good handle on the LSE decisions? Seems like there are no emails sent and people end up learning by checking the portal. It's a mix of acceptances and rejections so wanted to know if there's some order (application submission date, or last name(?)) to this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
econk Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Question - when people say (on GC for example) “top 5 predoc”, do they just mean they did a predoc at a top 5 institution? Or that they had one of the best 5 predoc positions? For instance, someone may have had a predoc at Stanford (but with an assistant professor that doesn’t yet have much clout) versus someone who had a predoc at UChicago with a highly acclaimed economist. The first person did their predoc at a top 5 institution, but the second arguably had the “better” predoc position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen any but maybe I've missed smth. Based on last year, there is no obvious order, although there was one day, on which they send many acceptances.

When I think of a top-5 predoc I think of the really competitive programs like EPIC, Opportunity Insights, and the Tobin Center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought I saw one acceptance but was likely mistaken. In that case, it seems like we just wait everyday and keep checking the portal.

On their website they state that they have “rolling admissions”, which I think means that they consider applications and send out responses in a first come first serve basis. Not really sure if this is what really happens in practice though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking PhD, which Dommull corrected (I recall that LSE's PhD has a MRes + PhD track). Rolling admissions must be for "simple" master's programs.
