Thrilled and overwhelmed... Really grateful to be admitted as someone who did undergrad outside the U.S. and the U.K. Quite expensive though... Especially for international students (it's like three times the amount of the locals).

I just came to realize that what this programme requires is the perfect fit to the programme, and that doesn't necessarily mean having the highest grades. My personal statement and writing samples were all in perfect alignment with the programme content, and I had a lot of extracurricular and co-curricular activities that were directly linked to literature and the sharing of literary knowledge. So, those who dream of reading literature at Oxford, do try! You won't lose anything by applying.

2nd year in a row, feeling defeated

Informal offer sent via email. Other details to follow.

Email received today, best of luck to those still waiting!

Thrilled to the core! To those who are asking about notifications for this degree- I know of 4 others who have been accepted. They received their acceptances 5 days ago. They aren't on Gradcafe but it seems that the department is sending out emails in small chunks as all of them were notified in one ago. I think that the next round of acceptance letters would be sent after Easter Monday. Best of luck! Don't panic.
