After months of lost hope, I received an email this morning (December 3rd, 2012) stating that I am now elegible for a J. Bombardier Master's Scholarship.
I, like many of you, applied in the fall of 2011. I was sent by my school as an alternate (with a strong application) and have been wait-listed since the spring.
If you hear nothing, that's generally a good thing. This race isn't over until someone declares it so.
All the best,
A
