doki doki Posted July 16, 2008 at 01:23 AM Report Posted July 16, 2008 at 01:23 AM Another update for those that applied through the DC embassy. I emailed my contact and was told the results still were not in but hopefully soon. The waiting game continues ...
extrapages Posted July 16, 2008 at 08:22 AM Author Report Posted July 16, 2008 at 08:22 AM i got the second year! im going to go hyperventilate. and i feel like such a proud mama for all of you that got it. and if you got the email and are waiting, ill bet that you got it, too! now come to beijing and buy me some dinna!
doki doki Posted July 16, 2008 at 01:34 PM Report Posted July 16, 2008 at 01:34 PM Congrats, extrapages! Another note on the DC connection. When I emailed the contact, in addition to the email, I also received an automatic email saying that he is on vacation in China right now. I'm assuming someone else at the embassy is dealing with this for him, or that he is in email contact, but I'm really hoping that isn't delaying the results.
zmblum Posted July 16, 2008 at 11:16 PM Report Posted July 16, 2008 at 11:16 PM Congrats Extrapages! Did you mail the app home and have someone send it to the consulate for you? And did you originally only apply for one year? Also, do you have any idea when BLCU's fall term starts? I can't find the info anywhere. Their English site has lots of start dates so I'm not sure which is the right one.
yueni Posted July 17, 2008 at 12:53 AM Report Posted July 17, 2008 at 12:53 AM zmblum, BLCU starts 1 Sept 2008. Also, congratulations to those who have gotten their scholarships so far! =)

mikevwilliams Posted July 20, 2008 at 08:03 AM Report Posted July 20, 2008 at 08:03 AM Hello, I applied to study a Computer Science Master at Xiamen University, and just found out today I've been accepted! Hope the rest of you get good news soon
hepingrob Posted July 20, 2008 at 12:51 PM Report Posted July 20, 2008 at 12:51 PM Has anyone heard from DC yet? This is frustrating...
smh254 Posted July 20, 2008 at 02:52 PM Report Posted July 20, 2008 at 02:52 PM Still waiting on DC as well; my boyfriend, too. I find it hard to believe the results aren't in. Maybe they are waiting on the visa forms, as someone already mentioned. Ugh.
Yi_Se_Lie_Ren Posted July 20, 2008 at 03:39 PM Report Posted July 20, 2008 at 03:39 PM Here in Israel the waiting continues........ ARRRGGGGHHHHHH
extrapages Posted July 20, 2008 at 03:55 PM Author Report Posted July 20, 2008 at 03:55 PM everyone in this thread should join the new CSC SCHOLARSHIPEES GROUP its for people who have received it, but i think everyone who has been part of this thread should be part of it regardless - although im pretty sure all you that are waiting have gotten it! SO JOIN! so im not the only loser member in a group i created myself. my chinese-forum reputation is on the line here. im planning to use it to plan and post CSC scholarshipee get togethers and dinners once you all get to beijing... and as you are the first batch of people ive helped, you guys will forever make me a proud mama!
Loriquero Posted July 21, 2008 at 06:27 AM Report Posted July 21, 2008 at 06:27 AM (edited) I just joined the group... but need Aproval Well, A little bit from my background: I've got a partial chinese scholarship for one year of chinese language and then a master degree on international trade (Donghua University - Shanghai) partial scholarship means that I just receive the tuition for free, But I have to pay for my accommodation and I receive no money from chinese government.... I've been in China for almost one year, took the HSK and... failed So, I just asked for scholarship extention. with my embassy in Beijing... Now they're suppose to be doing all the other paperwork My assistance records are good, and my scores are not bad either... what do you guys know about chances of getting the extension?? Another thing is, I also send a solicitude to my country's embassy in Beijing for getting the complete scholarship... Do you think that's possible?? Thanks ^^ EDIT: I was reading the OP post, and in my country (Colombia) I applied for the full scholarship, and I got the partial one, last year was like this: 6 colombian applicants got the complete scholarship, and other 10 (me included) got the partial one... all of us for master degree... I have that pretty clear in my mind cause the conditions were like that from the beginning LAST YEAR in the website of the education ministry of my country.

kaili22 Posted July 21, 2008 at 02:53 PM Report Posted July 21, 2008 at 02:53 PM Has anyone heard anything from DC recently? I emailed them a few days ago... no response. I'm leaving for China in 10 days... and still no news!!
mokushiroku Posted July 21, 2008 at 03:10 PM Report Posted July 21, 2008 at 03:10 PM I think there are several of us in the same situation. I have to leave Taiwan in 10 days because of my Visa expiring. I haven't bought a plane ticket yet because I don't know if I'll be going to China or going back home. What would you do in my situation?
doki doki Posted July 21, 2008 at 04:50 PM Report Posted July 21, 2008 at 04:50 PM This situation with the DC embassy is getting majorly frustrating. I'm waiting to book my plane ticket until I know if I got the scholarship and to where because I need all the time possible here in the US (I'm in the middle of applying to business school for the following year, and that's a lot easier to coordinate while here). They have to have the results in; I can't see how they couldn't. Has anyone else in the US received confirmation from another embassy other than DC? Oh, and that was me posting as smh254 a few posts back. He's the boyfriend and I'm the girlfriend.
feralryan Posted July 21, 2008 at 06:28 PM Report Posted July 21, 2008 at 06:28 PM I'm waiting, too! How many are being give out? Someone at the AAU said only 10. Not sure how much I should count on this scholarship...
