Well I also indicated to get financial aid, but I am pretty sure that everyone did that. So they still have to decide who will get funding or not. @Rudolph I guess, the reason why they asked you to submit the documents so early is just, that they need to see who is really accepting the offer to study or not. It seems, that the most of the people here applied in many universities and since LKY wants to fill their batch properly, they need to see who will come for sure. And I also think, this is the reason why they proceed with the interviews and admission until May.

Hi all! I think it is time to found a group with emails and so on so that we can also meet in the real life one day. To clarify for everyone: I applied by Dec 19, received the interview invitation on Feb 19, hat the interview in Feb 24 and got the admission yesterday March 25 around 10pm. The email just said, that I got the admission, congratulation and that I will receive an official letter later. But this time, the waiting time is acceptable for me. I am also very curious for funding or financial aid since I would also feel more comfortable with that and also Singapore requires some expenses (attention: irony). I really hope, the rest of our community here will get admission and nobody is left behind. Congrats to Giomar, Cags and Maawarinu! El Salvador sounds very interesting, but I am also not from Asia but from Germany, so we have really a nice diversity in the program.

Guys! I got the admission email! Omg! I can't believe..... So I hope some of you are also admitted....

Hi Rudolph, congrats to you also! Thanks for that information, so we know that they are releasing admissions for all programs.

I got that email too, so maybe it is already the standard reply. But maybe Friday is the release of the next round of admissions, so let's see...

@cs_mpp: I can understand that so much and even for me, I would require some funding to make the little dream possible. I guess, that is the reason why they sent you an early notification, so that you know "at least" that you are successful. But as you said, it is more or less useless unless you do not know if you are getting funding or not. But hey, maybe they are just super busy and admission is difficult this year.

I also agree! I don't understand why they provide different information via email and even for you who received admission offer already, it is not yet clear if you receive funding and so on. And I also don't understand why they sent you the notification and then an official admission again? Why not at the same time? Well, let's see...

I can't imagine that they are admitted already 60-80 persons and let the others wait until they may accept or not. For this procedure, it would be necessary for the people to know if and how much funding they will receive. And since this has not been published yet, I think, they just admit a few people every week and wait for their response.

I think the information from them seem to be confusing. In my opinion they are just still reviewing the applications and both, interview and admission phase are still ongoing. Maybe they have days to decide who will be interviewed and then days with the admission decision. But on the other side, I can't imagine that they could afford to take to much time for both decisions since people have applied on many universities and they also have to decide where to go. Furthermore they need to inform successful people about their funding. But this requires, that they are almost done with the admission. Anyway, there is a lot of speculation and assuming. I hope, we all get clear information soon.

I don't think, they are delaying the admissions even if a sad thing like that happened. I received an email for my follow up and they told me, they will really do admissions in batches and until end of April. So one more month to wait and hope

Well, that would be cool. I just hope I receive an email and not suckint on the last mile

No not yet, but I did expect an email weekend, since also these guys need to rest. But I hope the next week will bring more clarification...

Congrats Pianodive! For now, I can't see a system behind their admission batches. Some applied early and had interview early, some much later. Are you all coming from a certain region? Two of the four here are from India. What about the rest?

Congrats to all who got the nice email! I hope you get the clarification for scholarship soon!

Emag, have you received the email right now? When was your application and interview date?

And last question: when was your interview? That could give us a hint about their notice procedure...

Ah and another question: Can you check your status on the website? Has it changed?

And how personal was the E-Mail? I am wondering if it was a mass mail or a personalized one? I also want an email, hehe

Also congrats from my side! They really called you or you received an email?

No email yet....

I am wondering if anyone has received any admission email from them already? Or has any email left the school to any applicant?

So I assume that they are really releasing the admission emails very soon, maybe today or tomorrow. Wow, I am excited....

I think the same. It would surprise me when they take money from their grant pot and spend it and once it is empty, they are "just" admitting. I think, they are already aware who has the best chances to get funding or aid and then they approach them.

They told me during the interview, that the diagnostic tests are supposed to test the skill level of the people. And in case someone is not good in English or math, he or she has to come earlier for some refreshing course. I am not sure, if this is a sign that someone is rejected in case he is not receiving that. But since nobody has received it yet, I really guess, they haven't decided yet also.

True, no problem: https://inetapps.nus.edu.sg/GDA2/Applicant.aspx I still have it in my history of the browser. I hope it could tell you more about your application Namir
