Re: Westminster ScholarshipsI am from Vietnam, Takhmina. Too bad we both did not get it. Are you going there or not?(Original post by Takhmina)
Loan, I'm from Kazakhstan, and you?
I received an email and I am NOT awarded the scholarship too.
Cant afford it here, haizzaa, need to plan something else... -
Re: Westminster ScholarshipsYes, the supply is too low while the demand is too high, nothing much to expect or surprise, but still it hurts the feeling...(Original post by mg428)
There seems to be no winners yet. Perhaps they eliminated the first round and are still reviewing the second round applicants.
Do you have a plan B? -
Re: Westminster ScholarshipsYes, I am definitely going there.(Original post by Loan)

Re: Westminster Scholarships
Scholarship deadline for international students is May 31st.
I am also about to write my essay. After reading all the comments, i am a bit disheartened. But lets see what happens?
Are there others who are applying for the international scholarship? I would love to hear from you and share the process.

Re: Westminster ScholarshipsNo, you don't need to send several applications. You just have to mention your intended scholarships in your application. There is a place where you put your scholarship choices on the application.(Original post by Curare)
How can I apply for several scholarship at the moment? I mean both full and half fee waivers, Westminster international scholarships, International house, etc. Do I need to send separate copies of transcripts for each scholarship or what?
Personal note: I do not think you should mention both full and half fee waivers. Just write "full". They might just grant you a half scholarship. Good luck.

Re: Westminster ScholarshipsThanks for the answer! But on their website I see the following: Please note that you should only apply for the level of funding you actually need as we assume that you are applying for the minimum funding you require to take the course and we do not consider you for smaller scholarships if you are unsuccessful in gaining the larger one.(Original post by mekagrg)

I think this means that if full waiver is not granted, you automatically will not be considered for a smaller one. -
Re: Westminster ScholarshipsWell, that puts everything into a whole new perspective.(Original post by Curare)

I would think that mentioning both half and full waiver scholarship would jeopardize my chances of getting a full scholarship. But since, the university itself says it then i guess, it is perfectly okay to do so. I do need full scholarship though and the university doesn't have half fee waiver scholarship for international undergraduates(it only has the 2000 part fee waiver one). So i guess i should put that there.
Are you an international student? Undergrad? (Sorry for confusing you
)

Re: Westminster Scholarships
Hi everyone! I'm kind of new here. I sent my scholarship package few days ago and it may arrive to UK tomorrow. I'm wondering if the scholarship is processed based on the "first come, first served" rule? Because a friend of mine told me that she knew one guy was informed to receive a full scholarship in October while the deadline was in the early of November. O_O. When I saw a post by louderthanbells said he received a letter saying he was awarded a gold scholarship before the deadline, I now think that it's probably true that the process in based on"first come, first served" rule. Anyone here knows anything about this? I got some problems with the post office, and if they view the scholarship application before the deadline, it'd be a big deal T____T

Yes, I am an international student, postgraduate
There are 4 or 5 scholarships I would like to apply for, but don't know how to mention all of them in 1 application, they are not only from the University itself. I am a bit confused, yes

Re: Westminster ScholarshipsThey are usually good with answering emails. What do you mean by " not only from the university itself"? If all the scholarships you are applying are the ones mentioned on the scholarship brochure then you should write them down on your application.(Original post by Curare)
