Saltire Scholarship + CAS updates?

Hi!

My boyfriend applied to the saltire scholarship and I emailed to check up on it and the university said the same - that it was being reviewed by their panel. I am hoping in the next week or so. I was trying to find any info from last year but couldn't find anything which suggested when we would hear back. Which university did you apply to for it?

Oh damn, we're nearly in direct competition. I'm from Pakistan as well. It would've been real nice if there was more information in regards to the scholarship. The wait is anxiety-inducing.

Oh I agree. Theres barely any information about the scholarship - just very vague responses. Let me know if you hear anything and I will message too if I hear anything. best of luck!

Sorry for the late response. No, haven't heard anything back yet. How about you? I did see an old Twitter post by someone who did get it. Seems like it took 4-5 weeks for her to get a response.

Hi sorry, I couldn't reply earlier. Same. Guess they aren't taking many people this year. I hope it works out for you and him. Are you in Scotland/have applied here as well? I'll be joining in the Feb session so if you guys need anything, you can always reach out. Also, I'll keep searching for alternate scholarship/funding options. If I find something, I'll let you know.
