Its now just sinking in...........................I really wanted to go to school this year. I am hurt though

If you go to the worldbank website, you will see an announcement saying all those receiving scholarships have been notified. i did not get an email so it means I did not make it.......next time i will apply for an educational loan instead. those are easy to get and do not have conditions of having to go back to your country after attached to them

so people are already receiving the emails. do they come in batches or we should now assume that we did not get the scholarship

Its difficult for me to think about living allowance when I do not have the scholarship yet . Worldbank has really stretched my patience I tell you

My hope is slowly fading now.I should think of finalising my education loan application very fast now. Just to have a safety net.

I did not submit letter of acceptance when I applied. But a friend of mine who applied last year submitted a letter of acceptance with her initial application but was asked to submit again when they sent finalist mail. However, I would like to believe that procedures can always change.

Tinaye you are also from Zimbabwe. Best of luck to you too. I was just going through their annual scholarship publication http://pubdocs.worldbank.org/en/887451490013013188/2016-Annual-Report-Scholarships-Program.pdf. Its a very competitive Process. Out of 5000+ applicants, they give the scholarship to less than 200 students.

I also received the email with the 3 May deadline. My programme starts in August. I dont know if I will have enough time to plan for my travel and visa. its now 8 June and my patience is being tested. Who also applied for Heller School of Social Policy MISD programme here?Are we supposed to ever pay for the enrollment deposit if we get the worldbank scholarship?
