@Keren Adiru What I meant to ask was did you submit the LoA for your first preference with the initial application?

Hey @Keren Adiru Thank you. Your comment was very helpful. Was the unconditional letter for your first preference? Congratulations to the finalists!

@HazyN Congratulations on receiving the finalist email. I hope you get the scholarship I wanted to know if you had submitted your acceptance letter with the initial application.

Hello, Have any of you received the finalist email? Do you think we are still in the race if we have not received the email which was sent out to other finalists in May?

The Applicant Guidelines Document clearly mentions that all the finalists will be contacted by 3rd May. This is irrespective of the fact that you have submitted your LoA.

Hey, Has anyone heard back from WBJJ?

I think finalists must have been informed by now. And the chances of receiving the scholarship without receiving the finalist email is very low. They should have informed by now. I dont think there's any chance now. This is what the guidelines say i. For master’s programs that provide a letter of acceptance before May 3, 2017: The JJ/WBGSP Secretariat will contact via email each finalist on or before May 1, 2017, and ask he/she to deliver via email by May 3, 2017, a scanned copy of the official letter of acceptance into a preferred master’s program that you have noted on your Application Form, with the letter either: unconditional or conditional only upon securing funding. ii. For the very few master’s programs that start providing letters of acceptance on or after May 3, 2017: The JJ/WBGSP Secretariat will contact via email each finalist on or before May 1, 2017, and ask he/she to deliver to the JJ/WBGSP Secretariat, via email within one week of the date of the letter of acceptance to a preferred master’s program that was noted on his/her Application Form, a scanned copy of that letter of acceptance. The letter of acceptance must be either unconditional or conditional only upon securing funding.

@Baturay I hope so. But my friend submitted her acceptance letter with her application last year and received the shortlist email in May 1st week

@rrahman1210 I submitted the letter with my app. Haven't received any email from WBJJ

@Baturay I think they will still notify you. Even I got the unconditional letter from my top choice. I also attached the acceptance letter with my WBJJ app. But they still need to send the notification. Let's hope for the best

@Baturay The guy was notified on Friday. Looking at last year's WBJJ Gradcafe group, I gathered that the notifications were sent on 6th May to all the people. That's why I asked. Do you know of other people who have applied and have received the email?

Hi, Has anyone heard back from WBJJ? I got to know about someone who did.

Has the Bohnett Fellowship ever been awarded to people who are not from the US?

Thanks, I checked. Got accepted. No funding again.

I haven't received a rejection email. Is that odd? Should I call them up?
