D. filled out his financial aid stuff today, having received notice that he hasn’t qualified for the Overseas Research Student scholarship:
UNIVERSITY POSTGRADUATE ORS SCHOLARSHIP 2009/10
The University committee has met to consider this year’s ORS Scholarship applications and a decision on awards has been made. I am sorry to inform you that, on this occasion, the committee has been unable to offer you an award.
Applications were of a high standard and competition for the scholarships was therefore very keen.
Your application is also being considered by the Faculty of Arts Scholarship Committee. Applicants will be notified of the outcome of their application within the next week.
With best wishes
So, more student loans for us.

Good luck! And just keep in mind the quality education you are getting…
OH no. Many ((hugs)) and good luck on the next scholarship step. You certainly deserve it!
There’s a bummer…hope it all works out to not cost you too much in the end!
Hope the week of moving and things goes well…and that you guys will have some nice sun!
: )
What’s that idiotic saying “It never rains, but it pours”?
Gee, that sucks. What’s the saying: “When a door closes, a window opens”? Something positive will happen. Good luck with the Arts Scholarship Committee.
Sending good thoughts,
Paz
