I hope we are making progress wit our applications? May God see us tru.
Re: NITDA Postgraduate Scholarship Scheme 2016 by Nobody: 11:25am On Aug 09, 2016
I've been able to apply successfully, though I created two profiles and submitted one application. I hope it doesn't count as double application, but actually I submitted just one application.I'm keeping my fingers crossed and waiting for their shortlist.

Seems only few persons are interested in this scholarship because it is not overseas, well better for us that have applied cheesy.
Re: NITDA Postgraduate Scholarship Scheme 2016 by Nobody: 11:32am On Aug 09, 2016
The website is very wack, one cannot delete a wrong entry and uploading docs is kinda difficult too.

I wonder why an IT agency will put up such a wack website for their scholarship

the thread is cold because the nitda website is refusing to upload documents.

How can a thread be burning up when one has not applied yet? there is obviously nothing to discuss
