For me it says:
503 Service Unavailable

No server is available to handle this request.

I've submitted an incident to financial and tech support.
However, prior to the button's availability they did say there were technical issues regarding the application.

While waiting please enjoy this light reading :/

So, the GSS is now open but I'm getting a 503 error.

Anyone else having these problems?

I just tried to access it - it finally opened. I was getting the same error until now.
Best of luck everyone
Does transcript drop still mean anything/works now that they have a new applicant tracking system?
Hi everyone, little late but I received a conditional offer on Monday for the MSc in Human Rights and Politics. Good luck to everyone as decisions are rolling in and I’d love to hear from anyone who may have gotten accepted to this program or even a similar one. Good luck!!
Received my offer for Financial Statistics today!

First class average, ranked second on my course!
Would really like to know if strikes are impacting the admissions team. Seems like applications this year are taking much longer with strikes whether or not that's the reason. I applied on late December last year and got an offer on mid January. But applied for second choice this year on mid December and still not getting a reply. Feels like theres a disadvantage if you need to consider choices from other cities and plan for accommodation.

Totally agree. I applied on late November and still nothing. I dont know what to think about it, but its nervewracking af
LSE seems to be losing their grip a bit, the President Baroness just left for Columbia and theyre blaming brexit for funding loss which probably had effects on the late financial support application, so uncertain year we have ahead. If I were you in a week or two with no reply, probably start hedging my bets. Receiving a late offer would just give more stress cuz their admin is a ball-ache to sort out formalities...

Hello! I applied to the MSc in Social Innovation and Entrepreneurship (Management Department) on Oct 31st 2022 and later in Dec I received a couple of questions from the Admissions team and this past Tuesday I noticed my docs went from 'Received - not yet verified' to 'Received'. Have anyone received response from the Management Department?

Hey! Did you receive a response?

Applied in mid-November so has been more than 8 weeks now. Others I know have been getting replies, and they applied after me. Submitted an enquiry to check if anything is up but looking at their processing times, I won't see a reply for at least 3 weeks... I guess there really is not much we can do apart from waiting.


Hey! Thank you for your response. May i ask if you heard back from them by now?

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that you all should not worry if you haven't had a decision made on your application in less than 8 weeks. At the moment, I'm in my 13th week of waiting. I've emailed my department many times and was answered that the process could take "slightly" longer.

Hey! If you don't mind me asking which double MPA program did you apply for?

Have a friend who applied for one of the double MPAs as well and they're also still waiting.
Hello, I recently received an unconditional offer for the MSc Financial History program!I received my ID on November 26th, my documents changed to received on January 23rd, and the offer was made on the GAP on January 27th. So, the received theory worked for me as well!I hope everyone receives their offers soon, the waiting game was killing me as well :frown:
