Whoopee!!!

I just decided it might be an idea to check that the various elements of my online application to the MPhil that I want to do had all been received, and guess what I found...

I am going to be given an unconditional offer of a place on the course just as I hoped.

Phew! That means the first hurdle has been cleared. Now the second, final and hugest hurdle remains - funding (cue scary horror movie-style organ music). I have written the dreadful proposal/case for funding and sent the forms off to my referees, there is little more I can do, except wait for months on end to find out (and hope in the interim that the the university manages to send my form to the funding council before the deadline). Lovely!
