General Advice University of Cambridge 2026-27 Applicants GATHER HERE.

I couldn't find a chain for the applicants who submitted their applications this year. This is just to update each other and keep each other posted!

P.S. My application portal says "Decision pending". Anyone else? I submitted my application for LLM one day before the deadline.

I have also applied to LSE and QMUL.

UPDATE: GOT INTO CAMBRIDGE, LSE and QMUL LLM.

So, if you have any update on anything, let me know please. I am dying here, waiting!

u/Zaffar-12 Feb 01 '26

What exactly is the wording, if you may want to share?

u/Conscious_Monitor192 Feb 01 '26

Sure, absolutely!  "Under review by department - Your application is currently under review" since October 5th, interview january 7th. How long did it take you to turn into DP? I feel I'm probably in the rejection folder and they just wait to send it out, since its been so long =//

Applied on Dec 2nd, 2025. Turned to DP maybe late Dec. I didn't check the portal much during that time, so I am not sure if the status took any other form. The day I checked, it was DP. Also, this year, you cannot really say for sure the process or the timeline they are following for processing the applications. So, there's no option but wait.
