  2. I have already send the application package in time. But I was not informed in reply for receipt of it. The other thing is, why is this much delay to tell the out come? When will it be known? or is it already disclosed?

  3. I found the scholarship opportunity so fascinating and unique and i prepared and sent all my application documents via the e-mail address indicated on the ‘call for application notice’. But, sadly enough, i received a failure notice after the application dead line is passed. i checked that the e-mail address i used is exactly what is indicated in the call for paper.

    How and why this happen then? I also read a similar complaints by others. It is really touching to lose the chance for such silly organization related problems.Please fix such minor but costly issues for next time.

    • I’m very sorry about your experience with this scholarship opportunity. I would highly recommend that you contact the scholarship provider directly to let them know about this issue.
