Department interview for funding

Hello,

I was interviewed by my department in early Feb (one representing the department, the other "would be supervisor" :wink:

specifically for funding (apparently I was already in the top tier). I had a 15 min recorded interview that they let me know they had to submit for one of the studentships/funds I applied to. I was told they had only 1 month from the date I applied to be interviewed (I believe we made the cut by two days). However - they never let me know which funding opportunity this was for! When I applied, I clicked all that I qualified for. Combing through my application now, I think it has to be one of these three opportunities: Stephen Toope Studentship, Harding Distinguished Postgraduate Scholars Programme, or the Open-Oxford-Cambridge AHRC DTP Studentship.

Did anyone else who applied to one of these go through a similar interview? I know there's nothing I can do either way, I'm just so nervous about funding and wish I knew what it was for!

Ignore the wink - typo. No smugness here, only anxiety!

It must have been for the OOC DTP - I had the same interview with Faculty of English, specifically for this studentship. I'm curious to know if you received a further email notifying you that your department has nominated you for the final round of the competition?
