1. When can we expect to be notified of whether our application has been successful or not?
   Within 6 weeks of the closing date for applications.
2. Do I have to be a UK citizen to apply?
   No, as long as you are studying at a university in the UK, you are eligible to apply
3. I have been unsuccessful with my application in the first round. Can I re-apply for the second round?
   We'll be glad to hear from you again. Bear in mind the reasons why your first application was unsuccessful AND make the second one a winner.
4. Am I eligible to apply for a bursary to assist with my MSc project overseas, if I already have some funding from another body?
   You would fall under the category of research project and as such, you can apply.
5. I am under the EWB-UK research scheme. Am I still eligible to apply?
   Yes.
6. Is my application going to be reviewed by my own branch?
   Under our structure, it's very unlikely given that the applications are received centrally and then distributed equally and randomly. This is to avoid conflict of interest, ensure totally unbiased decisions and also to provide a more fair amount of work on all our review panels.
7. I missed the application deadline and I really need money to fund my project. Is there any possibility of the scheme still running?
   We are really sorry but we can't take your application in due to structure restrictions and implications.
8. Can the bursary scheme help me with my rent/university fees/entertainment money?
   No. The bursary scheme was set up with the aim of enabling good development work projects and is committed to this mission in the future.
