Thanks everyone, have just done some emailing around, hopefully someone will be able to do it!
Hi everyone, I have a PhD studentship application pending and it looks like it's going to fall through because I'm a reference short. The person I asked to provide it keeps fobbing me off saying they haven't got time to do it and now I can't even get hold of them and thanks to my MA being years ago, nobody else in the department knows me and there's literally no-one else to ask! The University have been really good waiting for me but they're not going to wait forever. Would it be considered weird to approach someone at the University where I did my degree even though it was 8 years ago? Has anyone else been stuck in a similar position? Help!!
