Are you talking about Gates Scholarship rejection letter? And if so, do you mean 10th February or 10th March last year? I don't understand...

I could have been looking at the wrong twitter account, but all the tweets appear to be about US Gates Cambridge scholars, not international Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torvicnz Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Hi folks. Just wondering if any internationals have heard back at all from Gates? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacob123 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) I'm a Canadian applicant and received an offer a few days ago but still haven't heard regarding Gates (or any other scholarships)... Aside from Gates, does anyone know when we can expect news regarding Cambridge Trust scholarships? Edited March 5, 2016 by jacob123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torvicnz Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 i think it depends quite heavily on the individual scholarships. I was told a few would be announced by end of April. In general, though, this funding announcement schedule has not been in good alignment with my US offers, ie I might have to make a decision before I know about funding opps from Cambridge.

However, they did not send every letter yet (see twitter) - maybe it depends on the committee. I know that people classified as doing 'biological sciences' have been contacted. I don't know about 'physical sciences', 'social sciences' and 'art', the other 3 reviewing committees. Do you know anyone in these disciplines who received an invitation yet? Anyway, the torture of waiting will end soon. I assume that if we don't hear about them by Monday evening, that's too bad... I am in the ''social sciences'' and haven't received an invitation yet. Any news? I am an international applicant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwr Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Any internationals get their interview results? I would guess the foundation will post the official results online tomorrow, so I'd imagine the winners have already been notified by email.

I didn't realize (until now) that the timing of the interview was different for international versus US – middle of the week versus weekend, respectively – so it makes sense that they haven't announced the official list yet. Thanks for clarifying, and congrats again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
