    Yeah, the outcome should be available next week. Today, I also made a call to the Scholarship House and met a lovely lady who told me that final decision was already made. She also asked me my reference number and after checking something on the system, she told me that she couldnt give me the result of my application through the phone. The outcome would be sent to us next week whether we win or not. I suppose she didnt want to upset me so didnt let me know ((((((. Now I dont really have any hope for wining any award there. :|

    Good luck, guys.

    queenie0105,
    thanks for calling the office and informing us.....the fact that she didnt tell your outcome doesnt mean you were not awarded,lets just wait and see dear.

    This is symptomatic ! Nobody got positive reply. What's the point? How many scholarships do they give, 5?

    I've being wondering about that. For each scholarship, how many winners are there? Maybe like 5 people, tops. Well Im assuming. But 1000s of people apply, its insane.

    We should definitely charge them for mental harassment and all the stress we had during these months. This is non-sense ! I can't believe all applicants wasted time, money and health on nothing !

    hahaha we should. If only they could work faster, we would be spared from the severe anxiety issues. All hopes up....for nothing.

    luckily, i already have a fully funded scholarship in india for msc....but i wanted to study that particular subject. thank god, i accepted that one...else id be screwed. for all those still waiting, wish u all the best. and for those who dint make it, just keep trying...look for other options. u can get better ones. i heard from many sources that uk is not awarding many scholarships this year...now i thnk it is true. I applied for the mauritian too...im sure nobody got it. i wonder why they advertised it then.

    Hey Guys, it is not so bad as I thought.

    Do you intend to reapply for scholarships for Jan 2013? I wonder what we need to make change to Statement of Purpose and Reference to improve our application.
