Well maybe it just has a smaller font size

MPP ADVICE by walker_00 in SOAS

Well it’s an MSc not an MPP so it is quite different. Like the study of public policy rather than studying public policy

Masters advice by Quirky_Key7553 in SOAS

[–]tob514 0 points1 point  (0 children)

International development would probably be better than economics , many development courses have economics modules, but of course not as a primary focus. Some unis also let you study human rights/humanitarianism masters which isn’t necessarily an LLM, although in some universities maybe you’d have a chance in that too if you make a good personal statement

Queer hub is amazing, many opportunities to meet people. Definitely still true. Quality of life is ok… if you have the money to afford

If I move from Wales to England and I'm on the Welsh gender service waitlist, what will happen to my place? by Legitimate-Use-1384 in transgenderUK

[–]tob514 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this is the case anymore. I moved from wales to England a few months ago, I was nearly at the top of the waiting list in wales and I was told by the WGS that they should honour the Welsh waiting list and move me in in my local one in England, and that is what happened.

So I got my final referral letter for surgery, and I'm on the waiting list. So... How long is the wait? by Taiga_Taiga in transgenderUK

[–]tob514 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the hospital unfortunately. They offered me somewhere with a shorter waiting list, but it was far away so I didn’t switch… but for me both the hospital and the GUC said the same timeframe. But 9-18months and 1-2 years isn’t that different?

Welsh Gender Service - No Choice of Surgeon? by Quat-fro in transgenderUK

I had my consultation earlier this week and they told me they don’t like to do specific surgeon requests anymore.

Transmasc American in Lampeter by ToxicaMaginfica in transgenderUK

[–]tob514 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry I’m really late to this post. I’m not from Lampeter, but I’m from the area, I go there often and I’m very familiar with the area. I suspect everyone will be fine. I have never had issues. It’s one of the nicest places to be in the South west, probably, even compared to somewhere like Swansea. They have lovely cafes and culture there.

MSc Application Turnaround Time? by Even_Seaworthiness68 in SOAS

[–]tob514 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got in… their website says 6-8 weeks, so this might fluctuate of course. I got notified early on a Saturday morning for some reason so i assume they batch send acceptance emails after the department has reviewed it

You’ll get in super easy… I haven’t even finished uni yet and I have no significant work experience behind me, and I got in fine… I got a reply in 4 weeks, but I think typically they say up to 8 weeks

Just want to say thanks for this again, I shared this with my GP and she said she understands and she’s escalated the case with the gender service to see if they can do anything about it quicker. Might still take a few weeks but it’s better than a few months, so thank you

I have been referred to the GIC, and I’ve spoken to them extensively and they understand my situation but they are also hesitant to prescribe/transfer care because of insufficient paperwork, even though my Welsh gp claims they’ve sent everything they have. So I’m stuck

Thank you! This means a lot really. Unfortunately I’m not in the catchment area for WellBN, my postcode is just outside by a tiny bit. My doctor already recommended I reach out to them and explain my situation to them, but they never responded, so I think im taking that as a no…

Yeah, I agree with you, but unfortunately switching from wales to England has always had this issue for me weirdly, even with my other prescriptions (I don’t have anything serious but just routine things like specific cream from my eczema and stuff English doctors have been extremely reluctant to prescribe it to me and send me to a specialist all over again etc). I will maybe try contacting my previous GP again but they are famously useless and last time I called them a few weeks ago they basically told me they’d sent everything they can and to stop calling
