Re: Help in understanding selection criteria
You only sent that letter? It is supposed that Compulsory Document 4 is written by a professor. I got shorlisted this year. I have good grades (8.74/10). I also did voluntary work, (not abroad). I think I got selected because my motivation letter and the recomendation letter were , (in my opinion),...

Re: Waiting for the deadline
Congratulations to all short-listed people!
Those of you who posted that you got short-listed today, did you receive the mail today or yesterday?
If you did receive it today there's still hope.

Re: Waiting for the deadline
Don't worry about this e-mail. Last year I only got an e-mail on late February, stating that I was shortlisted. They never sent me anything about receiving my application.

Re: Actions after shortlisted
So you already have the e-mail with the list of actions to do next?
It's very weird because even though I'm also shortlisted I have no feedback from them, not even that they received my application or anything.

I supposed it was because I sent my application on 19th of January. But in fact I contacted other applicants that they sent their applications during...

Re: Post office mistake
Actually I also have a question regarding this. They say that they want it either by courier or normal post but they do not accept "registered mail". What I understand is that they don't want to sign for the receipt of the folder. But on the other hand I think that all couriers ask for a s...
