UCL - Graduate Support Bursary (GSB)

Staring mournfully at my emails; found a bloody mistake in my application, so now I'm convinced they probably threw it in the 'nah' pile.

What was the mistake? I think that as we've been receiving emails from them, they've ignored any minor mistakes

What did u lot put down in your statement part...mine is soo crappy after reading thru

And good luck!!

Y'know, the usual stuff - my parents are too poor to pay for a Masters and my school was atrocious, please feel sorry for me!

I wonder how important the statement part actually is compared to the household income.

Like, if someone had a more convincing statement but a higher household income, would they be more likely to get GSB than someone with a lower income but worse-articulated statement?

I think if we're below the income threshold we'll be assessed equally.

What are your Plan B's if you don't get the funding?

But surely we're all below the threshold?

Probably defer by a year and begin furiously job-hunting. You?

Exactly the same. I've been meaning to job hunt while this is going on but I feel like I need to get this out of the way first.

Same.

F***ing pre-enrollment email
