Hi, fitto. Answering your question: I applied for the Study Scholarship - Postgraduate Studies in the Field of Architecture and last month received the selection results saying that I was selected. My average grade is 8,75/10 (which I think it's a B for the US). I also sent for the application a document stating my class ranking, which is 2nd place out of 40 students. I'm an architect and urban planner who graduated from a respected university in Brazil. I come from a tough background and the previous scholarships were crucial to my educational path. During grad, I did an exchange programme in France, co-founded a feminist collective, participated in academic research, published articles at national and international scale, and my final thesis received a 10, highest grade here. I also worked as an intern at an architecture office specialised in high-complexity projects, which hired me after graduation. Parallel to my work, I volunteered at the Architecture Council and, after that, at a social impact startup, in which I was promoted to Creative Director, my last working position. I also have advanced certificates in English, Spanish and French. Important to mention that I'm 29. If you're younger, avoid unfair comparisons. Also, this was my 2nd time applying for the scholarship. If you know that this is what you really want but received a rejection, don't give up - it's really worth it. Good luck to you all! ♥

Congratulations for the scholarship! ? Yes, you should answer through the same portal and application. Just click in new message, select a topic, subject, and write your message confirming that you'll take part in the language course as if it was a regular email.

Congrats! ? I think this selection procedure may be up to each institution and that's why they don't mention it in the instructions. How much time in advance they contacted you for scheduling the interview?

Good question. I can't say for sure, they aren't mentioned in the instructions of the selection process. But I saw posts from last year in the fb group and some people was talking about it.

Hi there! I'm also waiting for the gemma results. Has anyone here already been interviewed or scheduled?
