Hello,
My boyfriend was selected by the Uni of Bath for the Commonwealth Shared Scholarship Scheme. He was asked to complete the EAS form by 17 May. We assumed that this is a formality and that he would soon hear about his selection officially.
But today the academic from Uni of Bath who interviewed and selected him wrote to him saying that she wanted to clarify that he has been selected for the scholarship, but he hasn't been granted it yet. She said that though his chances of getting the scholarship are high they aren't 100% because the final decision lies with DFID.
This has made us very worried - has anybody had any experience of going through this process? Are we right in assuming that this is just a formality? Please help!
