刚刚搜了一下最近关于签证的帖子,发现好多5月份的都没有消息,我6月21日才在北京递的普签,想来结果更是遥遥无期了。
最近对于全奖这个概念发生了些疑问,录取的学校是SFU,提供2年每年$18,000的奖学金,前12个月的学费是$6,318.62。
但是学校的录取信上面有这么一段话:
Your offer of admission includes a funding package of $18,000.00 per year for 2 year(s), commencing in September 2013. Financial support beyond 2 year(s) is normally available but is subject to your performance in your program and the availability of funds. In addition, you may be eligible for a variety of other funding sources available to support your graduate studies. These are awarded on a competitive basis. All offers of funding are subject to continued satisfactory performance in your degree program.
也就是说要根据在校的表现来决定后面的资金支持。想问一下众位,签证官会因为这个(未来在校如果表现不好不发奖学金了)而怀疑资金担保力度吗?还是大家全奖的录取信上面都有这样的相似表述呢?
另外我还提供了学院的一封录取信(感觉是多余的,但是还是提交了),这封信上是另一种口吻说的:
We are able to provide you with financial support in the amount of at least $18,000 per year for 2 years in the program, given that you make satisfactory progress. The financial support comes from a variety of sources including: research (RA) and teaching (TA) assistant assistantships, graduate fellowships, external and internal scholarships, etc. Should you receive an external award (i.e. NSERC) to support your studies, financial support from SFU will instead consist of a minimum of $6,000 "top up" per annum while you hold the external award, again from a variety of sources. You can expect continued funding for subsequent years, subject to funding availability and satisfactory progress and performance in research and course work towards the completion of your degree.
