It was from Rebecca Tetteh. It says:

Hi Maria,

Thank you for your email.

Our current processing times have now been extended due to unprecedented demand and personnel changes. We aim to get back to all applicants by 31st of October 2023 (Summer Cohort), and 31st of January (Autumn Cohort).

Unfortunately, this may not fit with the timing of a particular course or programme. Therefore, we normally leave it up to the candidate to ascertain if they would like to continue to pursue the scholarship or not.

Respectfully, we can provide no further information at this point.

Thanks for sharing this. Yes I have also reached out and Jaine (Rhondi's cover while she is on maternity leave) has confirmed this. They will send out emails to everyone by tomorrow.
I will sadly be withdrawing from the process as my course starts on 2nd October...

I’m in the same shoes as you (Resuming in Oct ) I really don’t want to give this one up but let’s see how it goes.

It’s disappointing to know they’re extending that long 😅

All is well. Praying all works out for us all .

Can’t you ask your university for a delay in payment? Or ask them if you can pay in instalments?

That will be risky as I may not get the scholarship... I will then incur debt!

Hi, everyone,

I just wanted to confirm whether any of you included the bank statement with the application pack, or if they will ask us to send it later?
