Valja Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) Hi everybody! I'm new here, I found this page while I was desperately looking for news on IMRCEES scholarships! My name is Valentina, I'm from Italy. My academic background is in Modern Languages (Russian, English), curriculum International Politics; my main interests concern Soviet and Post-Soviet Russia, its foreign policy, and Russian perception of the West since 1991. My final thesis for the Uni of Venice was on Russian perception of NATO expansion eastwards, and it was written during my semester in Russia at the University of Tula. Anyway, about the scholarship... I got the email and I'm on reserve list too. What are you going to do now? Just hope and pray someone withdraws his application, like me? x Edited March 6, 2015 by Valja RozenKnight1990 1
Mit-bandi Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 i think anyone who didn't qualify on the main list got on the reserve list. The reserve list makes sense only if we knew our ranks on the reserve list
sonita Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Hey everyone! I was nominated by the consortium I was in the main list for external window countries. I guess I have to wait the response from the Agency right? Im so nervous!!
awrochon Posted March 9, 2015 Author Posted March 9, 2015 Hi all, I applied to both IMRCEES and MAPP. I received notice that my scholarship from MAPP needs to be accepted by the European Commission. For IMRCEES, I'm waitlisted, but as this is my second choice, I'll likely decline being on the waitlist. I asked the coordinator through Erasmus Mundus MAPP if the check by the European Commission is just a formality and here is what she sent me: "Dear Ali, Thank you for your prompt response. It is a formality that the European Commission checks our list of selected students. So far they have not declined any scholarships this way, but of course, we cannot guarantee their decision in advance. Best wishes, Heni" Hope that helps to answer some questions about the process!
sonita Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I hope then it is just formality then!! Fingers crossed! awrochon and RozenKnight1990 2
RozenKnight1990 Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Hi sonita! Congratulations on receiving the window scholarship nomination (I also got it so maybe we will study together). However, as far as I know, regional window scholarships are limited in number, so the final result will depend on another selection round. They are different from the mainlist since mainlisted means that you've already received a pre-allocated scholarship. Hope this helps!
awrochon Posted March 25, 2015 Author Posted March 25, 2015 Hi all, Last Friday I was told I was moved up from the waiting list and had received the scholarship (or at least a recommendation to the European Commission for it). I need to tell them by March 31, if I accept or not. Since I have to decide between Mundus MAPP and this program, I asked the coordinator for more info. If this is simply a formality, I will let one of the schools know that I'm declining my application. However, if there is a chance that I could not get the scholarship, even after being given unofficial confirmation, I might hold onto both nominations. I'll let you know here once I accept or reject the offer!! Hope everyone isn't stressing too much, waiting to hear from different programs! RozenKnight1990 1
RozenKnight1990 Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 Any news? Its mid-May already and I haven't heard anything from the programme yet. Last year a student received her official result on the 30th of May. I hope it will be issued earlier this year.
awrochon Posted May 18, 2015 Author Posted May 18, 2015 Scholarship confirmed! Mine was confirmed on Friday too! RozenKnight1990 1
RozenKnight1990 Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) Congratulations! That means we are future classmates right? Edited May 19, 2015 by RozenKnight1990
