I can't believe what you just said above.
But I guess, I am just pissed.

PS.- If a scholarship ommittee member has a little spare time, could they mind telling us (particularly or generally) the reason that we were not chosen? Thank you.
Unfortunately, with the hundreds of applications we received, we're not able to reply individually to those who didn't receive assistance. This isn't to say that your applications weren't good, or what you weren't deserving—the simple fact is that we have an extremely limited budget, and we chose the people we thought were the best candidates based on the information available to us.
If you weren't sponsored, it isn't that we looked at your application and ruled you out, but rather that we weren't able to accommodate you in our budget. It's very, very difficult to weigh one person's value over another's, and there are a great many candidates I wish we could have helped, but that was the difficult task with which we were charged, and we did our best.
