Mastercard Africa scholarship funding MPhil cambridge 24-25

Hello,
Are there mastercard Africa scholarship applicants for Cambridge MPhil 24-25?. It seems there are virtually no discussions about Mastercard funding. This can serve as a thread where prospective applicants and previous holders can share their ideas, ask questions and possible get clarifications.

I think it takes longer for International students to be sent an offer, So let's wait

The wait really is nerve wrecking, it seems Gates Cambridge has been sending out invites surprisingly to people without offers yet soo no idea if Mastercard would also follow that route, does Mastercard even have interviews?
Most of the gates invites has been for PhD, was asking why MPhils who have received are not saying anything

Yes. They do. I know a couple of friends who won the scholarship and they all had interviews

Yesss. I was wondering the same thing! Most people applying for PhDs have been invited for interviews and offered the scholarship already! But I understand Gates Cambridge does take MPhil students, or has the eligibility changed this year?

Degrees committee (DC)
Decision Pending (DP).
So apparently, the DC is the next stage after one has been recommended for admission by his department. While, DP is just a new status ,not uet explained but covers both DC and PAO status.
