Funding applications - Status

Hi there,

I am an offer holder and applied for a scholarship. The status of my funding application is "Reserved." Do you know what does it mean? Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks!

In terms of (finance) economics "reserved" means you gotta put that money aside rather than use (consume) it. It is reserved on behalf of your tuition, or accommodation (if you get that to support your accommodation as well). The University is gonna use that money to pay for all the tuition, accommodation or any other items you're gonna apply/touch towards your enrollment. They're not gonna put that money into your hands! (Others can expand on that, it's just what I understood on behalf of my applications.) Thanks!

Hello, I just found out my funding application status has turned into 'reserved' too. Any guess? I'm nervous!

Hi, thanks for clarifying. I have a question: does it mean that the applicant will be awarded with the scholarship?

I asked UAL, and it has a similar meaning with 'received.' We'll have to wait until the result arrives

So am I, but no need to be worried! I sent them an email, and they replied.

Thank you very much! We should be hearing about the results by mid-August, right?

Hi guys my scholarship application status also turned to reserved. If anyone finds out exactly what it means please share. Feeling a bit anxious

No need to be anxious, it only means that they checked your documents and received the application. Its the same status for everyone until they declare the results.

Me too, unfortunately i didn't get the 50,000 scholarship :frown: :frown: By the way, if anyone has any info about getting funding from other resources i would be happy to know! I am not able to pay the cost of my studies and living costs, so I am totally depending on the funds I can raise! I am not giving up! Thank you

My deadline for a scholarship is tomorrow (24/05/2024) and currently it's 23/05, the day before the deadline. However I am unable to access my application, and it says 'Existing application pending' (before it said 'Incomplete' and it's not clickable anymore.

HELP!!!
