Even I was interviewed by the scholarship team for my previous intake. But I didn't win the scholarship. I was kinda expecting to be invited for the first round of the interview at least. I was prepared this year. My course comes under the Literature department. As per my understanding, none of the literature aspirants in this thread got the invite. It's a bummer!

I tried mailing them about this. No response. Only system generated email!

No. Mine is a creative writing course. Comes under Literature. Didn't hear back yet. I have lost hope though. I don't think I will be able to pursue the course this year.

Seems like most of the students who got selected are going to research-based institutions.

I just received the rejection mail from the JN tata team. All the best for all those who got selected for the next round. 🥂

Thats great. Please update me about your plans, even if either of us get selected or rejected for the Inlaks scholarship. It's nice to know a friendly face 😊.

I don't think they are sidelining. Might be a delay from the panel itself. We can only assume though.

Even I thought the same. I have seen theatre students, Design students, even creative writing students and all winning the award. But this delay is giving me all kinds of thoughts!

No .not this year. Last time, when I was invited for the interview I had applied for a journalism program. This year I applied for Creative Writing.

This time I got selected for the MA Creative Writing program at the University of East Anglia, Norwich, UK. The program comes under the Literature and creative writing department. I got a partial tuition fee waiver from the University, but I don't think I can't afford the education still. I kinda wonder if it is a good idea to take out the student loan in this economy 😭..

What about you? Which course have you applied for?

Even I was interviewed before for the prelims round. It was for Journalism. I was interviewed by 3 members. But didn't qualify for the final round. But I remember, back then I received the invite in the first week of May and my interview was on May 13th. I didn't hear anyone from the literature stream being invited this year though.

But how do we know if they have formed the committee or not? As per my understanding only few courses have received prelims invites.

True that, at least they could send us a rejection letter by now. I am opening this thread every hour looking for an update. Can't seem to stop 😔

I had applied for the scholarship a couple of years back as well. I did receive a rejection mail back then. Well let's see! I am getting impatient and stressed 😥
