Anyone here is still a conditional offer holder? Is there's a chance for a conditional offer holder getting this award?


academic merit and home country benefits and reference are yardstick for nomination BUT BUT BUT believe in God and yourself and pray to whatever you believe in. Only God makes the unqualified qualified.

Have you been finally nominated by Keele?


Aside bedforeshire in this forum, am I the only applicant for nottingham and leceister?

Are references really used as a criterion for selection??If so why is there no deadline for references??

Actually I know of a guy who got the scholarship having only submitted one reference. Before GOD makes the unqualified qualified the unqualified need to ensure they have done their best and nothing but their BEST and that boils down to sealing all those loopholes in your application.(on a light note though)

I wish you all success as we keep on waiting for the final selection. How many nominations did Strathclyde have by the way?
Any other nominee for Leeds?? What of Bath?
This waiting is just too much..

Can any applicant who applied to Sheffield Hallam University update me if his /her agency input page have been completed by Sheffield Hallam University. I'm quite worried about mine hasn't been completed by nominated agency

On the contrary , it should be a problem. The CSC only awards scholarship for Unconditional offer holders. You should try to send those remaining documents asap. And success in your en-devours.


@Mustapha what had you applied to study at Strathclyde
