SOAS Fall 2021 - International Student

[kxlx]

Hi, 

I just received my unconditional offer from SOAS but I will need to apply for the funding by myself. 

Previously my potential supervisor mentioned that I could apply for SOAS Research Studentships, but I've check in their site that the studentships is closed for now. I have e-mail the scholarship team and got no reply. I also make a call to their office and nobody pick it up. 

I update about my offer and check to my potential supervisor about the availability of SOAS Research Studentships this year, and been waiting for the reply for nearly 2 weeks. 

Is it a red flag? Should I keep fight for it? Thoughts and tips are mostly welcome. 

Thanks!
