2019 Doctorate Application Progress thread

[benbrand]

Good luck everybody and congratulations to those who have interview offers! I've trawled back through the 2018 thread and resigned myself to the fact that none of my options sent out offers/rejections until 13th March last year so am making myself try to relax for this week....

Southampton
Oxford
KCL
Royal Holloway

Graduated in 2015 and have been working as an AP with the same Trust since then. Hoping my experience isn't too 'narrow'.

I've also been referencing last years, but courses this year have by 15/3 to notify applicants. Last year courses had a few weeks longer, so its likely dates we hear back will be earlier.

Off topic but I'm relieved to see someone else comparing last years' dates to this years. I'll be very glad when the waiting is over!

After lurking on this site last year, I thought I might actually get involved this time around!

Surrey (sat tests)
Salomons
Bath
RHUL

On another note, I thought the deadline for Surrey notifying applicants about interviews was March 1st, so just wondering whether anyone had heard from them.

Surrey didn’t give a deadline but last year they sent out interviews around 8th March if that’s helps

Hey, I’m interviewing at Essex this year too! I’m on the Monday.
Would be so helpful to find out a bit more about what to expect on the day but I haven’t seen much on here either!
Hope prep is going well

Sorry to read this. Be kind to yourself, it's a rough journey at times.

3 of my colleagues have taken the test for Surrey and, as of today right now, have not received any feedback regarding interviews so looks like it is still open season for now.

There's a chance we will hear back today from Surrey today. It was Thursday of this week around 5pm last year, according to the previous thread.
