The IMSE consortium will allocate the scholarships by using a ranking based on the previously mentioned criteria and specific criteria set by the Erasmus Mundus Agency. An interview with pre-questionnaire may also be part of the selection procedure.
The IMSE Admission Board expects to be able to communicate to Erasmus Mundus Category A applicants whether they have been accepted to the IMSE programme and whether they have been awarded an EM category A scholarship in April 2012.
De deadline for Erasmus Mundus Category B scholarships is also 31 Janaury 2012. For these students, we expect to be able to communicate whether they have been accepted to the IMSE programme and whether they have been awarded an EM Category B scholarship in April 2012 as well.
Note: A GMAT/GRE is compulsory for all students who wish to qualify for an Erasmus Mundus Category A scholarship. It is an optional requirement for students who wish to apply for an EM Category B scholarship.
If a candidate is selected (proposed for an Erasmus Mundus scholarship, put on the reserve list, or enrolled on a self paying basis) his or her data may be used for the purposes of evaluating the Erasmus Mundus programme and will be made available to the Agency, the EM National Structure, the EU Delegations and the Erasmus Mundus Student and Alumni Association, acting as stakeholders of the programme.
Appeal procedure
In case of non-selection and if a candidate has grounds to believe that his/her application file, although complete, has not been processed through the selection procedure, he/she may engage an appeal procedure by writing a complaint letter to the IMSE Coordinator. This complaint letter needs to be sent by email within 7 working days after receiving the notification of non-selection and needs to be sent to: imse@uvt.nl
The reasons for the appeal must be clearly stated in the email. Note: A candidate may appeal ONLY on the grounds of defective or unfair procedure by the IMSE Selection Committee.
