Some info here:
I saw someone on social media (one of my Facebook friends) asking on behalf of someone information regarding the scholarship today. I am assuming because that person got an interview invite, even if the Facebook post did not say so explicitely. Also, the other person in my department who got nominated by my university also did not get any news.
I am under the impression that they are sending out the invites one by one...which is strange.
My application is still under review on the Portal.
In case anyone is waiting to hear back, I found out today that I have an interview (third year in a row applying..!). Anyone have any insight/ can link to a thread where people have described the interview process before? I have no idea what to expect. Keeping my fingers crossed for you all as well!
