ishet Posted March 28, 2020 Posted March 28, 2020 @foreigncorrespondent any idea if Social Science panel acceptances have been announced?
mada34 Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 Fwiw I'm a social sciences applicant and haven't heard back yet. I don't imagine it's unlikely that we'll be hearing back after the weekend -- I'm sure each panel will take different amounts of time given the unusual process, and we were told that we'd hear back during the week of the 30th.
foreigncorrespondent Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 @ishet have to agree with @mada34: I think the responses should be in waves, because this is a very unusual time. So just hold on! Just so you know, I was told in the email that my response time to confirm/decline was till Tuesday, or else it would be offered to someone else. So even if you don't hear on Monday, you will still hear soon enough, I'm sure!! All the best!!
ishet Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 Thank you @mada34 and @foreigncorrespondent. Congratulations on winning the scholarship @foreigncorrespondent! foreigncorrespondent 1
query123 Posted March 30, 2020 Posted March 30, 2020 @foreigncorrespondent I applied to MPhil in Film studies, Arts panel, I got an email that I will hear from them from the week beginning 30th of march, does this mean I did not get scholarship ?

Maybe they have notified PhDs only? All this process is weird due to the current circumstances... Although, since at least one person (PhD) has already received the outcome, I would say that if by today we don't hear anything is probably that we didn't get it...
query123 Posted March 30, 2020 Posted March 30, 2020 @Mphil-s I thought they notify the Arts panel in one go, Phd or MPhil, I hope you are right good luck

I don't think that should be the case: they may well be rolling out MPhil offers later, not least because those are more competitive (2/3rd of the Gates scholarships go to PhD scholars) so they may be taking more time with MPhil applicants. Also, from a purely logistical front, there is a separate link generated for each applicant to respond to, and I'm sure that takes some time to create. I don't think you should give up hope just yet! I'm quite positive more offers will roll out over today and tomorrow. All the best to everyone on this thread-- looking forward to meeting you later this year!

ax345 Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 I have just received a rejection (MPhil in Epidemiology), congrats to everyone who's been successful! ?
foreigncorrespondent Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 Has anyone on here gotten an acceptance? I'd love to keep in touch, especially since COVID is making me a bit anxious. Please feel free to DM, even if you are not comfortable posting!
